Microsoft has released the second beta edition of its upcoming Internet Explorer 8 browser. The emphasis on this release is on customer-oriented features. Microsoft is still playing catch-up with Opera, Safari and Firefox but offers a few unique features as well. The final version of the IE8 browser will be released in November.

A few nice new features, but it's still not Firefox.
Come on Micro$oft stop playing catch up and come up with something ground breaking.

Some genuinely nice stuff in there, not sure it's enough to tempt me away from firefox though

The article seems to imply that only IE8 can enable or disable individual plugins. This is not the case. Athough Firefox 3 doesn't have the same list view of add-ins, the functionality is almost identical - Firefox just omits the install dates.
