Microsoft said on the same day that outside developers had been able to download the IE9 Platform Preview version on the ietestdrive.com website. Since this release is intended for external developers, it does not include a IE9 user interface, but rather lists Microsoft's new JavaScript engine (developing code as "Chakra"), a new graphics subsystem, and several web sites for testing.

Last November, Microsoft demonstrated its early development version of IE9. Steven Sinofsky, senior vice president of the Company's Windows division, said at the time that IE9 scored 32 points in the ACID3 test (a full score of 100 Steven Sinovsky). Microsoft executives recently revealed that the latest IE9 development version of the ACID3 test score has increased to 55 points.

Microsoft says the HTML5 standard can handle more rich media content and process faster, so browsers based on this standard will be able to take full advantage of multi-core pc performance. Because of this, Microsoft's new JavaScript engine has been developed for dual-core PCs to speed up the overall speed of the browser.

Microsoft also said it would release more previews before launching the IE9 Beta, and would welcome feedback from outside developers. But Microsoft did not disclose the time to release the IE9 beta. Dean Hachamovitch, general manager of Microsoft's IE department, said IE9 would no longer support the Windows XP operating system but would only be able to run in Vista SP2 or newer Windows operating systems (Dian Hachamovich).

Microsoft Project Manager Mark Chilbey (Marc Silbey) wrote in the company's IE blog earlier this month that there are still more than 2000 high-traffic Web sites that are not compatible with IE8 browsers, causing IE8 users to access these sites using only IE8 "compatible browsing" mode, To ensure that the Web pages of these sites are displayed properly.
