What's new now
The new improvements to IE won't change much in terms of looks, but some of the changes will likely be immediately obvious to users. The biggest updates include:
? a new pop-up blocker that will stop most pop-up advertisements from appearing;
? an "information bar" similar to that in Outlook 2003 that will replace traditional pop-up dialog boxes to notify users of active downloads, blocked pop-ups, and other background activities;
? better management and notification of "browser helper objects," small pieces of add-on technology often used by spyware and adware developers; and
? a host of security fixes aimed at blocking identified flaws.
The release that includes the updated browser is available on Microsoft's Web site in a version aimed at administrators updating several computers. Individual releases will be available through Microsoft's online update service over the next few days and weeks.
Just curious how it effects pop-ups?
