“Microsoft is going on the offensive against Google, accusing
the search giant of creating a browser that does not respect user
privacy. The company posted a video, embedded below, on TechNet

Chrome collects every keystroke you make and how Internet Explorer
8 keeps your information private through two address bars and In
Private browsing.

“Microsoft’s first criticism is Chrome’s combining the address
bar and the search box into a single entry box; IE8 keeps those
fields separate. “By keeping these boxes separate, your privacy is
better protected and the addresses of the sites you’re visiting
aren’t automatically shared with Microsoft, or anyone else,” says
IE product manager Pete LePage.”
