The long-awaited browser’s second beta is out! Yes, Internet Explorer 8 Beta 2 has been made available for public download just a few minutes ago. It is now faster, easier, and much safer than ever.

The IE team blog has just posted that IE8 Beta 2 is now out with lots of new features updates than the previous beta. Beta 1 was basically for developers, but Beta 2 is for everyone who browses or works on the web.

We focused our work around three themes: everyday browsing (the things that real people do all the time), safety (the term most people use for what we’ve called ‘trustworthy’ in previous posts), and the platform (the focus of Beta 1, how developers around the world will build the next billion web pages and the next waves of great services).

IE8 Beta 2 is available in 32- and 64-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and Windows Server 2008. And it comes in 4 languages: English, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified), and German. Additional languages will be available soon.
