They won't. MS has officially ceased IE development as a standalone program. You'll get patches for what's out now, but we won't see anything dramatically new until Longhorn, the next OS, which isn't slated to hit until 2005.

I prefer Mozilla, myself, but you can get MyIE which uses the Explorer backend but features a lot of the competitor's advantages like tabbed browsing and tab bookmarks.
