One week after the publication of the seventh developer preview IE9 has been updated: An update for the last official beta (version number 9.0.9370) was released on November 23rd, which is unfortunately only being made available to some users today via Windows Update:
The update is intended to fix some bugs and increase the reliability of the browser - unfortunately, Microsoft does not reveal exactly which problems will be fixed. So be sure to check in the Windows Update program (see "All ProgramsWindows Update") whether the update for IE9 Beta is available. If not, there's the Download individual package right here.

An Internet Explorer beta (with the version number 9.0.8023), which was previously only available internally, was also released to the public and can only be obtained from "unofficial" sources. Despite the relatively large version jump, the superficial changes are limited. Here are some exclusive screenshots of the pre-release version:

Wie immer gilt: Vorsicht! Geleakte – und somit inoffizielle – Vorabversionen können mit Viren verseucht sein. Wir verteilen aus diesem Grund hier keine direkten Downloadlinks und bitten alle neugierigen Leser um Verständnis!
