If you are a die hard internet explorer fan, download the latest
IE9 (Beta).It's a significant improvement over it's predecessor,
comparable to chrome. It's better than chrome, if you consider
hardware acceleration(use of graphics card to help boost
performance) offered by IE9

If you have issues after installing this IE9, eg: It keeps
crushing after you install it, do let me know.
Hardware acceleration is enabled by default, and that's
probably most of the time, the reason for the crash. (Drivers have
to be updated/not compatible)
You can disable hardware acceleration by going to your
control panel, then Network and
internet, followed by internet options,
clicking on the advanced tab, and then
mark " use software accelerating instead of GPU
rendering"
