Then Tanslate the page, After that you'll come to the rumour.
Anyway. These maybe only rumours but quite good ones after all.
With stuff like:
"The user will receive more control of Popups. InterNet lives on advertisement, therefore Microsoft will not integrate a function, with which the announcement of Popups can be completely prevented. However the Popups the possibility can when desired be taken of opening several times or in the frame mode"
And a spell check,
"The spell verification and the thesaurus of Office 11 will function also within the Browsers."
Sorry about the link size. But i hope you won't mind too much.
There's probably a reason to that, but troubleshooting windows is indecribably difficult, so I'm just going to re-install once I get my disc back.
And stability? I think Mozilla 1.21 has crashed once on me in XP, never in Linux. 1.01 was less stable under XP, but I could probably still remember each specific crash. Internet Explorer, on the other hand, has died on me with monotonous regularity, usually taking the operating system down with it.

Mozilla security or stability is not yet in the same league as Internet Explorer, would you believe it.
MAN, n. An animal so lost in rapturous contemplation of what he
thinks he is as to overlook what he indubitably ought to be. His
chief occupation is extermination of other animals and his own
species, which, however, multiplies with such insistent rapidity as to
infest the whole habitable earh and Canada.
When the world was young and Man was new,
And everything was pleasant,
Distinctions Nature never drew
'Mongst kings and priest and peasant.
We're not that way at present,
Save here in this Republic, where
We have that old regime,
For all are kings, however bare
Their backs, howe'er extreme
Their hunger. And, indeed, each has a voice
To accept the tyrant of his party's choice.
A citizen who would not vote,
And, therefore, was detested,
Was one day with a tarry coat
(With feathers backed and breasted)
By patriots invested.
"It is your duty," cried the crowd,
"Your ballot true to cast
For the man o' your choice." He humbly bowed,
And explained his wicked past:
"That's what I very gladly would have done,
Dear patriots, but he has never run."

Pretty cool :D

Heres what to expect:
1) There will be a spell checker for forms and for people who have office xp there will be a theasaurus, both will work in the same way as the right click menu that already exists in MS word
2) There will be no popup stopper but there will be limits on what popups can do (no full screen and multiple popups etc)
3. There is likely to be some sort of tab UI but it is going to be different to that of Mozilla and Opera.
4. There will be some sort of theme ability similar to that of Opera and Netscape
5. There will be many new features for windows XP users that will not be in 98,98SE, ME
