微軟將停止對IE 8/9/10的技術支持大綱

Microsoft will stop supporting Internet Explorer 8, 9 and 10 on certain Windows computers on January 12.

當地時間1月12日起，針對採用特定Windows操作系統的電腦，微軟公司將停止支持它們所裝載的IE 8/9/10瀏覽器。

Up to 20% of Internet browsers could be impacted, according to NetMarketShare.

NetMarketShare網站的數據顯示，近兩成的上網用戶或受影響。

After next week, Microsoft (MSFT, Tech30) will push security updates and bug fixes to Internet Explorer 11 only, on machines running Windows 7, 8.1 and 10.

下週之後，Windows 7/ 8.1 /10用戶只能收到微軟公司（MSFT，科技股30指數板塊）針對IE11推送的安全更新程序及配套補丁。

Anyone who continues to use an out-of-date browser could put themselves at risk for malware and cyber attacks.

繼續使用舊瀏覽器的用戶可能會面臨惡意軟件威脅和網絡攻擊的風險。

Microsoft "encourages customers to upgrade" to Internet Explorer 11 "for a faster, more secure browsing experience."

微軟公司“鼓勵用戶升級”至IE11“以獲得更快捷更安全的上網體驗。”

If you're running Windows Vista, Microsoft says it will continue to support Internet Explorer 9. Microsoft will also keep supporting older versions of IE on several enterprise server operating systems.

微軟稱，Windows Vista可繼續支持IE9。公司也仍會維護某些企業服務器操作系統裝載的舊版IE。

The company first announced plans to end support for its older web browsers in 2014.

微軟於2014年首度透露暫停支持舊版瀏覽器的計劃。

In 2015, with the launch of Windows 10, Microsoft gave customers a new default browser, Edge, which is a definite improvement over Internet Explorer.

2015年時，隨着Windows 10的面世，微軟爲用戶提供了全新的默認瀏覽器——Edge，同IE瀏覽器相比，Edge有了明顯的改進。

Confusingly, though, the logo for Edge looks almost exactly like the logo for Internet Explorer.

可Edge的圖標竟與IE的圖標別無二致，這樣做有些令人難以理解。
