Microsoft released patch yesterday for Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) bugs in Windows 7. It addresses a wide range of “reliability” problems.
“We use the term ‘reliability’ to broadly encompass all types of stability problems including crashes, hangs, memory leaks, etc. Most of the issues that we discovered through the [IE8] Beta are fixed in the Release Candidate 1, which is now available for Windows Vista and Windows XP,” said Herman Ng who is a program manager on the IE8 team.
The article at Computerworld notes that the total number of bugs that the patch fixed is not given.
