    Hello Vishal, Internet Explorer 9 contains all the security enhancements introduced in Internet Explorer 8. InPrivate Browsing is same as of Internet Explorer 8.

    Thanks. An option to start IE in InPrivate mode should have been built in Internet Options. Alternatively, you can start IE in InPrivate mode by changing registry.
