Microsoft set March 14 as an official date for the release of its Internet Explorer 9.
The date was set to correspond to the SXSW show in Austin, Texas, where Microsoft is hosting an event on March 14.
Microsoft says the new browser will go live on its servers at noon sharp on the 14th.
One noteworthy thing about IE9 is that it will not run on Windows XP, which remains the most widely used form of Microsoft's operating system, according to tgdaily.com.
Internet Explorer has remained the most common Web browser, though it has lost market share to competing products like Mozilla's Firefox and Google's Chrome. The tough competition has forced Microsoft to stay ahead of the game and ensure its browser is as up-to-date as possible.
