IE 5.5

[Jason]

Has anyone caught a look at the new Internet Explorer version 5.5? Any new features on it? Did they screw it up like Netscape did with version 6?

Hey Jason,

I downloaded IE 5.5 and it's fine so far. The only new visiable feature is a print preview. However, the developer tools onboard are quite good. I have been told that with a small patch file you can even ues it as an FTP client.

Look for a review of IE 5.5 coming to 123 soon!

Yes the international version has been released, and the American version is set to release about September. The full version is somewhat different, having patches to most all the bug in IE 5.5 beta and a few more fully devloped addins.
