Internet Explorer integrates an entire library of browsing accelerators, helping users find content on the internet with the Search Suggestions option, a small search box providing answers according to the search provider selected. The new script engine is considered way faster than in previous versions so that loading times shrink considerably. A favorite tab was designed to keep users up-to-date with new e-mails, whether reports, quotes, scores and others.
By the use of Web Slices, any developer is enabled to write an add-on for the Favorite tab. Old sites can be browsed in compatibility view mode. In addition to that, the tabbed browsing has been improved, as it also happened with RSS feeds, history management, and security.
Malicious websites are blocked before harming the computer thanks to the SmartScreen Filter. Several other filters protect users against cross-site scripting attacks, click jacking, and third-party content.
