Rumor: Kinect-enabled Internet Explorer browser coming to Xbox 360
The source tells The Verge that the new web browser is based on Internet Explorer 9, and features Kinect functionality, allowing users to search with voice input just like the Bing search tech used in the current dashboard. Users will also be able to browse the web without talking to it, reportedly.

MPAATTG-Flying-Prawn lol to those who think they're going to watch por* I bet MS is going to block all those sites before its released. Most likely almost any bad site will be blocked and Im sure they'll block any filesharing sites to.
Why would they need to? first of all, IE would be just a browser, it wouldn't be instructed to BLOCK anything! except for the ability to download or save files obviously.
in addition, it powers on HTML 5 which is brand new and the windows 7.5 phones have this now and they don't get viruses or any of that such, everything will be implemented as if it were a mobile device!

KiiLER ok seriously guys do you really think microsoft would use another companys web browser...? Any reasonably intelligent person could figure that out. For the record it wont be anything like the PC or MAC based browser because its on XBOX !
If you were referring to my comment I was only saying. Of course I knew it would be EI cause Microsoft made it.
