Microsoft plans to automatically push Internet Explorer 7 to Windows XP users when the browser update is ready later this year. IE 7 will be delivered in the fourth quarter as a 'high priority' update via Automatic Updates in Windows XP, Gary Schare, Microsoft's director of IE product management, said in an interview Tuesday.

Internet Explorer pipelines the requests too.
From MS KB:
"When Internet Explorer establishes a persistent HTTP connection with a Web server (by using Connection: Keep-Alive headers), Internet Explorer reuses the same TCP/IP socket that was used to receive the initial request until the socket is idle for one minute. "

Firefox feels much faster than IE on high-latency/high-bandwidth networks (some corporate LANs) because it will show partially downloaded pages right away, and it can pipeline data requests.
