Microsoft Seeks a Way Out of the Internet Explorer Corner | |
|
||
| Time: 11:41 EST/16:41 GMT | News Source: Microsoft Watch | Posted By: Chris Hedlund | ||

Microsoft really backed itself into a corner with Internet Explorer (IE) by holding onto its claim that its browser is an inextricable part of the Windows operating system. The Redmondians have been sorely lacking a compelling story to tell users who are unhappy with the constant barrage of IE security flaws and who are actively seeking IE alternatives. The current line — wait until Longhorn in 2006 — just doesn't cut it. Now, it turns out Microsoft isn't quite as naïve as we thought. Company officials are discussing with partners ways that Microsoft might update IE before Longhorn. We're betting we'll see one or more IE add-ons, delivered via Windows Marketplace, sooner rather than later. | ||
