I'm currently running Windows Explorer 7. This morning my update menu appeared offering 1 important update, Windows Explorer 9. I'm running Vista Home Premium 32 bit. Is WE9 stable at this point? Should I install it , and if so what are the advantages over WE7? Thanks....Fred

Yes, you should update. I am currently using 9 and find that it has more features, better security and easy to learn.
You can always make a system restore point, first, to go back in the event that you are not satisifed.
The big advantage is the improved security.

I am using IE9 on Windows Vista 32bit, its running fine. I can say IE9 is much better than any other IE version....High Graphic User Interface, Very Secured, ULTRA fast..etc.

Will all my settings from IE7 be saved (security settings,add-ons, favorites, etc.)?

Yes - IE7 Will be replaced and all your settings transferred will be there

Note   Note
You may uninstall IE9 from your Updates menu in control panel


Hope This Helps,

Which version do I install for 32 bit Vista Home Premium? There are 4 versions I believe (64 and 86 or something)....

For those that have 64 bit OS


Install 32 bit IE as default, if you have 32 bit or 64 bit OS. It is faster and better. If you should need 64, (rare) it will be available. That is what I did.
(FOR OTHERS)
FRED: You need 32 aka 86.

Just installed IE9 and it seems to be working ok. However, I don't see the "Protected Mode" message at the bottom of the screen. Is this no longer a part of IE9?

Thanks...one other thing. One of the replies I got on this thread said that some components of IE9 were downloaded separately. When I cliked on download it just installed and that was it...no separate software as someone suggested. I was told I may have to download some components manually if they didn't get installed with the initial installation. How can I tell if I have everything I'm supposed to? It seems to be working ....Thanks

All you need to do is download IE9. Later on you may want to install add on's. Not necessary with initial install.

My "Security Center" desktop icon does not work now. When I click it, it says "Security Center Cannot be found". I can type "Security Center" into my searchbox and it comes up, but no option for creating a desktop icon (shortcut). Is this normal?
Thanks again...Fred
