It is not true. What is true is that Microsoft is building a new browser (as mentioned by others). That browser is consumer focused and contains features such as auto-update or Webstore like extensions. However, IE will still be part of Windows, especially for business customers. This is also due to backwards compatibility.

I wouldn't have said it is from scratch, as it is still using the same engines.

In that case, I think they'd have to work a little harder on virus protection...

Agreed. THey are still using the Trident rendering engine and that's kind of the main portion of the browser.

The good news is that means there is another browser to support. w00t! I'm sure the new MS browser will work entirely differently than IE. You know, like, "wait, does it support addEventListener or not?" MS couldn't make up their mind on that one. That's always fun. It only strengthens us developer types. New Business Opportunity Heck, it's so confusing now for consumers you could almost start a company which teaches people to click around in the browser, which should be the easiest thing in the world but isn't. :)

Some might say that the MS-offered browser has always been spartan. I'd say that the name is a simple matter of calling a spade, "a spade". spartan adjective     showing or characterized by austerity or a lack of comfort or luxury.     "the accommodation was fairly spartan"

Hahaha let's bring the peace :P
