Four months after debuting on Windows 8, Internet Explorer 10 has finally come to Windows 7. Here are the five essential facts users should know.



From InformationWeek:
Four months after debuting as part of Windows 8, Internet Explorer 10 (IE10) is finally available for Windows 7. A preview version of the new browser has been available for Windows 7 since November, but Tuesday's release will be the first taste for the majority of the operating system's 700 million users, the largest user base of any Microsoft platform.

Available in 95 languages, IE10 continues Redmond's efforts to reclaim its status as the top Web-surfing option. Over the years, IE has slowly ceded ground to competitors such as Chrome and Firefox. Estimates vary, however, regarding how much damage has been inflicted. The most recent findings from Net Applications, for example, suggest that Microsoft continues to lead the field, with IE's various versions aggregately accounting for 55.14% of worldwide market share.
