Microsoft has released RC 1 (Release Candidcate 1) for Internet Explorer 8, and it can be downloaded here.
Internet Explorer 8 is the newest browser from Microsoft, and offers users new features such as Web Slices which basically uses RSS feeds to display content in mini windows, along with improved security features.
IE 8 RC 1 is not available from Windows 7. I was unable to get it to install if anyone was able to install it on Windows 7 please tell us what you did.
From Microsoft
What does “RC1” mean?
