Microsoft has finally released the final version of Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7, the latest build of IE browser earlier available only for Windows 8. However, Microsoft hasn’t made any public announcement
about the IE 10 release for Windows 7 but the download links are now live on their webpage. Users can download IE10 free for Windows 7 SP1, either the x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version.

Windows 8 launched with Internet Explorer 10 installed by default but Windows 7 users were still stuck with IE 9. With Internet Explorer 10 Preview, Windows 7 users can now enjoy some of the new features that Windows 8 already have. While Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 8 lives a double life as a touch-based and desktop browser, Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7 only presents the desktop version of IE 10. Still, there are plenty of interface and upgrades under the hood.


Interface - The interface of Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7 has changed only a little. The forward and back buttons are integrated into the window, making the look of Internet Explorer 10 Preview more seamless. Tabs and the address bar share the same space. If you have a lot of tabs open, the interface can look a bit cluttered.

Integrated Flash
Like in Windows 8's version of Internet Explorer 10, Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7 will feature integrated Adobe Flash support but only for selected sites. The Flash plugin isn't integrated into Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7 yet but will be added in a future update for the browser.

Performance
Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7 is the quickest version of the browser yet. Microsoft has included support for web standards like CSS animations, HTML5 spell checking, and improved JavaScript performance. The browser definitely feels a lot snappier than previous versions and puts it on par with competitors like Firefox and Chrome.

Security
IE has been very weak in the security department and Microsoft hopes to change this with Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7. There will be specific pop-ups that will ask for permission to access part of the OS that a browser typically doesn't require. he main security addition to Internet Explorer 10 Preview is "Enhanced Protected Mode," which will lock down parts of the Windows operating system, preventing the browser from accessing the OS. This will help prevent viruses or hackers from gaining access to your files, even if IE has been compromised.

Do Not Track
It seems that just about every browser these days has a 'do not track' feature. This feature allows users to opt out of targeted advertising. With Google Chrome, you'll have to enable it yourself. Microsoft makes 'do not track' user friendly by having it be opt-out instead.
