One of the new features of the newly released browser from Microsoft, Internet Explorer 9, is the ability to use a tracking ad blocker. Unlike Firefox, this feature is built in and you don’t need a third party add-on.

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time). For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
