In Windows 8, we reimagined the browser with IE11. We designed and built IE11 to be the best way to experience the Web on Windows. With IE11 for Windows 7 consumers can now enjoy a fast and fluid Web with the updated IE11 engine on their Windows 7 devices. The final version of IE11 on Windows 7 is available for download today. IE11 on Windows 8 brings an entirely new browsing experience and set of capabilities to the Web, such as a new touch first browsing experience and full screen UI for your sites, security improvements that offer the best protection against the most common threats on the Web, improved performance, and support for the HTML5 and CSS3 standards developers need. With this new release, Windows 7 customers receive all of the performance, security, and under-hood changes that enable a stellar Web experience. IE11 Release Preview also sends the 'Do Not Track' signal to Web sites by default to help consumers protect their privacy.
1: To install the BT optimised version of Internet Explorer 11, you need to visit this page. 2: A security prompt may appear below the address bar. 3: When the download window appears, click Run. 4: A security warning may also appear, in which case you should click Run here too. 5: On the next window, click Install.
Fast and Fluid Browser performance is critical for running today’s modern Web sites and applications. IE11 is all around fast, bringing improved hardware acceleration and Chakra JavaScript engine to Windows 7. We continue to focus on improving real world site performance and third party recognition of IE's leadership in this area has been consistent. You can experience IE11’s leading performance first hand with new demos on the IE Test Drive site with examples of hardware accelerated rendering in the Aston Martin 3D visualization for high frame rates, and interactivity, touch, and media with Audio Explosion. The Mandelbrot test drive is another example of how IE11 runs real world sites fast, particularly sites with computationally intensive JavaScript and graphics. In this demo you can drill into detailed views of the Mandelbrot set and see how long it takes to calculate the view and how many iterations are calculated per second.
Greetings, Internet Explorer 11 has served me well these last few years, but is now becoming somewhat of a problem as a few sites for me have become IE unfriendly and I am always told by people at these sites to use Chrome or Firefox. They seem to acknowledge the problem with IE and don't care to ensure that their website is still compatible. So before I make any sort of jump to another browser, I just wanted to make sure that I am actually using the latest version of IE 11 performance wise as opposed to security issues. I have it set to automatically install updates, so I am assuming that I have the latest version. In addition, it is my understanding that Edge does not work with Windows 7 - is that correct or is there a way to get it to work despite what Microsoft may say. Thanks for you help.

The version I have on my computer which is up to date is: Version 11.0.9600.19080 Update Versions: 11.0.70 (KB 4339093) Product ID: 0-00003-AA459 Windows 7 64 bit. It seems yours might be a bit out of date. This MS website might help you. KB 4339093 is part of the July 18 security update Roll up. At the bottom of this MS website page there is a link to download the update. Hey Ranger 4, Thanks for getting back to me.
I can't access the link. Microsoft says my brower is not supported. I am not the most savvy person when it comes to this sort of thing, but do security updates improve performance when it comes to surfing the web and being able to access all kinds of websites or is it more fixing of bugs and vulnerabilities when it comes to malware, etc. Or does it do both? Are you still using IE11?
Thanks again.

Hey Man, sorry about that link & I see it doesn't work. You will probably need to download & install the whole July Update which can be found at Seven Forums News page & the link for that is below. As you are running Windows 7 64 bit you will need to download the 64 bit version, which you will see is at the bottoms of Brink's opening thread. After it has downloaded, install it & this should bring your IE 11 up to date.
Yes I still use IE11 & Opera for all my web browsing.Hey Ranger 4, Yes, I am running the 7 64 bit, but are you sure the IE 11 update is included with this? Is there any description of what is included with the IE11 update? Do updates make IE11 better in terms of being compatible with 2018 internet sites or does it just fix past glitches? I was under the impression that once Microsoft launched Edge - Internet Explorer was dead to Microsoft and they would no longer be supporting it with updates. Sorry that I am sort of clueless with this. I am surprised that I wasn't notified by Window 7 Update about this to install. Since you still use IE11 - do you come across sites that won't load properly or that simply say your browser is no longer supported?
Thanks again, HM. Since you still use IE11 - do you come across sites that won't load properly or that simply say your browser is no longer supported?No, I haven't had any problems with IE11. How up to date in your Windows 7 & do you install all the updates? I install all Windows Updates, especially the monthly Roll Up ones, as they include important security updates.
MS is now rolling up a lot of updates in the Monthly Roll Ups & they are not listing everything that's included, that's why it's important to install them. MS is still updating IE11 as this website will verify.
Open the following MS website & click on line 6, you will need to count down to line 6, which is the IE11 for Windows 7 x64 version. This will open a dialogue box explaining the update & you will also notice it's listed as critical.
Close the dialogue box & then click on Download. The update is 52.5 MB. Once it's downloaded, click on it & install it.

As far as updates to Windows 7 - I don't always do that with each update that pops up. Windows 7 has worked beautifully for me, so it's sort of like if it ain't broke - don't fix it. Do I need to do each update individually from months past or can I just do the latest Windows 7 or IE11 roll up and I will be up to date - I just noticed through my own search that there have been a few IE11 roll ups.
