Microsoft Confirms "Porn Mode" For IE 8, Calls it "InPrivate" (Still Sounds Dirty)

Microsoft has confirmed the rumor floating around last week that IE 8 would get its own "porn mode"-or "private browsing mode" if you insist on being mature about it. Amusingly enough, they have dubbed their service InPrivate, which sounds even filthier if you ask me.

Firefox baby, all the way.

[NO_PUDding]

I still use IE.

I just can't get used to Mozilla now. And I onyl own a Playstation 3, so it's not like I am a Microsoft fanboy (do those even exist?).

[Gamekilla]

people use firefox as their primary browser these days...it seems they have reason to visit IE now...i see this feature popular with many teenagers, adults know that all they have to do is delete the cache, history and any search history that exists...:D

[GameOn]

once I went FF i never looked back.
Truly a pleasure to use.

[RemmM]

Firefox ALL THE WAY!

[xhi4]

thanx for the tip buddy! ;)

bahaha i kid

[thereapersson]

I'm sure there are some, just not sure what they are...

[hahahabutt]

Its Ironic how FF is being used like crazy and is now starting to see more security problems then IE.. When IE was king it was the other way around. The more FF3 browser are being used, the more it will have security problems, while IE goes back to having less issues with less users. Happens with any program, nuff said.

[chaosatom]

ROFL.

[iamtehpwn]

Just Killed firefox.

[ZombieNinjaPanda]

Microsoft effed up with the name.

What comes to mind when the word porn is said? Yeah

A lot of people are gonna be really disapointedddd

[gano]

I'll trust them...pfftt..loloLOlOLohahaha hahahhahhahaha......pfftftfhaha haha
hahahahahahahahahahahahha.... .whew.
Didn't they say they were spying on people recently.

[snittolo]

+1 for Microsoft I'll be laughing at this article for weeks! But on a serious note the application does have a lot of use.

[kai_h]

Again, Microsoft is late to the game. Safari already has this, and Firefox has an add-on for "Private Browsing".

[joydestroy]

got a link to it? never heard of that.

EDIT: nevermind. it's actually called Distrust. but i'm reading at different sources that it only works for older versions before 3.0, and then on other sites i'm reading the opposite.

EDIT2: direct link to Distrust for Firefox 3.0

I have been using Macs for several years now and this has been a feature of Safari since I started using it. Once again Microsoft steals someone else's idea.

FWIW it works perfect on my Mac... Never once been caught with porn!

[joydestroy]

useless for me. i want to get away from porn since it's what i work with all day at the office :/

FIREFOX wins again.

[Wildarmsjecht]

Do explain. In detail if you will.

[TheDude2dot0]

He's one of those Suicide Girls that pose nude with video games.

[Heldrasil]

He works in the back "office" of an adult store and has to clean off all the naughty and saucey adult mess from returned videos.

[heyheyhey]

inprivate? subtle...

[Cynjo]

With firefox you get the best of both worlds.....porn and security. I know that's a contradiction but i feel more safer browsing with FF3.0 then ie 7,8,10,14, whatever.

[Obama]

Too bad IE sucks compared to firefox.

[Droid]

no sh1t, Osama

[Cynjo]

OK I'm intrigued as well......explain yourself

[IzKyD1331]

as usual IE is late, safari had this feature long ago

[zo6_lover27]

It does?

I had no Idea.

I use both Mozila and Safari, its like the ultimate FU to Internet explorer. And for some reason my computer won't let me delete IE, and I'm pissed, I hate that thing

[IzKyD1331]

you didnt know that?
the feature is awesome (I mean, its not like I use it or anything :P)

[Bonsai1214]

M$, meet Safari. might as well rip inquisitor and resizable textboxes while you're at it.

[Alex_Mexico]

If I install IE 8 will my Favorites I have stored currently get deleted or will I stay with them?
Plz help me with this

[Exia]

Yay! I only use IE for this stuff anyways since the main computer everyone uses Firefox.

[chinesesoldier]

........................... OMFG what has the world come to?

[adorie]

addfffffffffds

[CouchKing0]

Great, now I can watch 2 girls 1 cup whenever I feel like it ;-)

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA

[jay2]

[Venomous_1]

HaHa! Firefox hands down best browser.

[Jadedz]

Tools > Clear Private Data

There you go.

FF FTW :D Been using it since 0.8

[Figboy]

IE all the time, but when i started some freelance work last year, they used Firefox, so i was forced to learn it.

i haven't looked back at IE since. Firefox is frigging awesome, and i'm continuously learning new shortcuts and features that the browser has.

that sounded like a Firefox commercial, but it's genuinely the truth. it's a great web-browser.

[lewis]

no suprise at all.

[Snarko]

Its just a friggin web browser! You just use it to view webpages!

[hahahabutt]

I feel ur pain..lol

[Sanzee]

I love how the dude who posted the article put (Still Sounds Dirty) in parenthesis. That's some funny shyza.
