Microsoft's Internet Explorer 9 was downloaded over 2.35 million times ever since it was released on Monday evening. A blog post on the Exploring IE Blog gave the rates as over 27 downloads every second or over 240 downloads every 9 seconds.

The IE9 Beta version had scored only 1 million downloads on the first day of its release. The new version includes HTML5, an improved UI and the most advanced tracking protection feature.

This new version of the Internet Explorer only runs on Windows7 and Vista that is seen as a blockade for it to grow market share.
