Internet Explorer 10 To Launch With Windows 8?

Rumors are spreading rapidly now a days about Microsoft Windows 8 operating system. Internet Explorer 9 has already launched by Microsoft, infact it�s not even a month of its release and now, Internet Explorer 10 rumors are already starting to surface. The latest, and possibly first, IE10 rumor says that it will ship with Windows 8.

This information has been leaked by Chinese website Win7China, who is claiming that they have a solid source of information that this rumor holds a bit of weight. They also state that IE10 is already in Windows 8 M3, but we have yet to confirm that information.

The idea of including IE10 with Windows 8 seems logical. Considering that IE9 just launched, if the rumored Windows 8 launch days are correct, the browser would be well over a year old when Windows 8 finally ships to the consumer. Other than this little bit of information, not much else is known about IE10.

Release Date of Mozilla Firefox 4 Announced

After a year of development and testing twelve betas and one release candidate version, Mozilla has now finally going to release its most awaited final web browser version of Firefox 4 on March, 22 at 7AM PDT. Mozilla has already released its RC version of Firefox 4 on March, 9.

According to Mozilla's senior engineer director Damon Sicore in its message to developers says that, the first and only Firefox 4 release candidate would likely ship as the final version of the browser.

Damon Sicore has further said that:

''As of now, there are no known issues that would stop us from shipping RC1 as final, March 22nd is the day we would ship.  Both IT and Marketing have indicated that March 22nd is an acceptable final launch date.  If at any time we discover issues that would block final release, we would issue an RC2 as soon as possible, reset the ship date, and communicate to everyone,''

Tech blog ConceivablyTech spotted the date on Mozilla's official release schedule yesterday.

The final version of Firefox 4 was originally scheduled to ship in November 2010, but repeated delays saw the release schedule revised on more than one occasion. Given that rather chequered history, it remains to be seen if Firefox 4 will actually ship on March 22 as planned. Mozilla has also indicated a desire to move to a faster release schedule following Firefox 4, with mozilla.org co-founder and Mozilla CTO Brendan Eich telling developer�s users could be running the fifth version of Firefox just months after Firefox 4 is released.

Chrome 10 Web Browser Released by Google

Just after seven weeks of introducing Chrome 9, Google has now released its new version of Chrome 10 web browser. Google has removed support for H.264 and adding in a 66% faster JavaScript engine in its new Chrome version. This new release is also features the new Crankshaft JavaScript engine which was included with the recent beta.

The big change is in the Chrome Options screen which has been revamped and will now, according to the official blog, "help you get to the right settings quickly so you don�t have to dig endlessly to find a way to import your bookmarks or change your browser�s homepage." Instead of using the traditional menus, users are now able to type the setting option into the address bar instead.

The removal of the H.264 codec may not come as a surprise to many as Google said they would cut it out earlier this year due to a patent issue with a group of companies including Microsoft. For HTML5 content the browser still has support for Theora and WebM codecs, both of which are open source.

"Combined with the near half-percent of users of newly introduced IE9 Beta, the modern Internet Explorer browsers now account for 34.07% of users worldwide according to Net Applications."
