Thread: Internet Explorer faster with Chrome!!!

Are you interested to increase the speed of your Internet Explorer 8?... well the solution could sounds a joke but you can do it thanks to Google and in the particular thanks to Google...Chrome!. Recently Google released a plug-in for IeE 8 in order to make it faster (IE), according to some tests made by famous magazines "Computerworld" and PCWorld" Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) was 9.6 (let's say 10 ) times faster than IE8 on its own thanks to a new browser's WebKit rendering engine ( the one offered by Chrome) plus a new approach to the V8 JavaScript. Google released it in order to improve the support of IE to HTML 5 (useful in the case you need to use some advanced web based applications as Google Wave), i'm not sure if Microsoft likes this gesture

Enable open web technologies in Internet Explorer

Google Chrome Frame is an early-stage open source plug-in that seamlessly brings Google Chrome's open web technologies and speedy JavaScript engine to Internet Explorer. With Google Chrome Frame, you can:

* Start using open web technologies - like the HTML5 canvas tag - right away, even technologies that aren't yet supported in Internet Explorer 6, 7, or 8.
* Take advantage of JavaScript performance improvements to make your apps faster and more responsive.

Download it from: http://code.google.com/chrome/chromeframe/

Please note that this release could be considered as a Pre-Beta intended for developers and testing.

i am not understand, how come google help to improve IE performance with the new plug in??

It's possible, last time I made my firefox run like 200% faster!!! :)

all these will affect your computer speed.. but you need to do maintainence on your computer (like disk clean up, diafragmenter etc) so that your computer can wokr as normal..

The beta of Chrome and second platform Preview of Internet Explorer 9 both show big speed improvements. But the race doesn't always go to the fastest. The new generation of browser wars will be about far more than speed.
