That's actually good news.
 
IE has long since been so tightly integrated into the O/S filing system i.e Windows Explorer that IMHO is a security risk and a drag on the system , ya' know... having to empty/clean up dead temp files and such.... way too much file fat accumulation, too many associated 'free radicals' is not good.
 
A good browser should be lean as possible without compromising security of course. Few addons are great whereas most are probably collecting info and actually slowing the browser down.

The same IE code (or 'pipework') will remain they will just call it 'windows' (this is confirmed).

In further news Apple is to be rebranded 'Decca'.

And knives will be replaced by cutting instruments.

It's just a refined engine with a different UI. I bet it's not a rewrite just marketing

Thanks for the info. 
 
Strangely ironic that I was ranting on and on about IE being so tightly integrated with Windows and now MS plans to rename IE....  Windows. Doh!

Well, that's just great! I DON"T use Chrome or FF... I use and LIKE IE and I have no trouble with it. I know where everything is. If I migrate my favorites to Chrome or FF it reorders them, which is a problem for me. Little things bother me. I don't want to learn something new. IF it ain't broke... don't fix it!
That is just great...

edit... OK, just the name is changing? You had me upset. BTW, my 'back' button works just fine.
