Can’t find much useful info on it on the IE Team blog. Some speculate it will have a central database with registered third-party cookie providers (i.e doubleclick, valueclick, tradedoubler, google CPA etc), but that just sounds… insane. It would decimate an entire industry!

acid3 results:

IE7 = 5/100
IE8 = 21/100
Safari 3 = 39/100
FF3 = 71/100
Opera 9.52 = 83/100

Btw, last article about IE8 performance is really good!

Btw, I have IE8 beta and this is far the best IE ever… on other hand FF3 is not best Firefox ever. :)

I repeat, not enabled by default. The user must choose to enter in to that mode. In order for the third party content to be blocked the source must trip a threshold. There is a lot of good information on the Mircrosoft IE team’s blog. If you have time I highly suggest you look in to it.
