Microsoft has split the installer for IE9 into four versions, depending on your operating system, so be sure that you download the correct one. Different versions are available for Windows 7 x86, Windows 7 x64, Windows Vista x86, and Windows Vista x64, and Microsoft's site ought to autodetect your OS. While not the most convenient download, it's not the kind of thing for which we would dock the score.
What is a major problem with the IE9 installation process is that the browser will not work on Windows XP, which still has about 40 percent of the worldwide computer market a year and a half after Windows 7's release. There is no version of IE9 for Windows XP, and there never will be one.
Microsoft's official explanation places the blame on changes made to how device drivers are handled in Vista and Windows 7.
Microsoft is clearly taking a page from Apple here, a company that has used forced obsolescence to its advantage. It's a big risk for Microsoft customers, though, who are used to support for older hardware and software. We love Windows 7, and will be extremely happy when the majority of Windows computers are running it, but hardball tactics over hardware acceleration are not the way to go--especially when competitors have demonstrated full hardware acceleration on Windows XP.
After installing, Internet Explorer 9 also requires either a reboot or for you to shut down all your open programs. This indicates that the very manner in which the browser interacts with Windows 7 and Vista has been changed, probably for the better, but nevertheless it's an annoyance.
