 IE 10, Windows 7.

 Through WordPress 3.8.3, and then through changeset [27060], a URL pasted
 in the editor window in IE would automatically be converted to a link. In
 [27060], autolinking is explicitly disabled with a note for it to be
 reenabled with the TinyMCE autolink plugin:

 `Disables the autolinking in IE 9+ this is then re-enabled by the autolink
 plugin.`

 It does not appear that the autolink plugin was ever enabled after this
 changeset.

 I'm not entirely certain if it is our intention to enable autolink by
 default, though it sounds like this is a feature IE users are familiar
 with.
