Alchemists at Google have been working out a way of turning the base lead of Internet Explorer into Chrome.

Last year Google showed off something called Chrome Frame which takes Internet Explorer and turns it into Google Chrome via a plug-in.

Writing in its blog, engineer Alex Russell claims that the plug-in has now grown up to the point where it is ready to move into beta. Of course it will stay in beta for a good few years as Google likes that sort of thing after which time it might become a final version.

To use Chrome Frame, all a user has to do is go here and install the plug-in on either IE6, IE7, or IE8 running on Windows 7, Vista, or XP. However websites will have to add tags to get Chrome Frame to work.

Anyone using Internet Explorer will see the tagged webpages rendered as if they are running the Chrome browser.
