Internet Explorer 7

[raydeon]

I just installed IE ver. 7.
I like the look of it. Much clearer, less clutered and the print contrast is much improved.
Is anybody else using it, and what do you think?

I'll wait until the sp's are released.

I should have read the thread dealing with that in the Technology section.

Mixed reviews on it from download.com.

I tried it and uninstalled it. I didn't like the look of it.

It does the job.

I found it lot better than IE6. Bad thing is I cannot upgrade it at work because there is no Win2000 version, just XP supported for this version...

On the other hand, I also upgraded Firefox 1.5 to new 2.0 and a lot less incompatibility with IE designed sites. For instance, the pictures on 4play are now displayed properly in Firefox2.

So, even if IE evolved (10 years to get into tab browsing...), others continue to evolve also, so there are alternatives out there.

I also like SP's
Specially brunettes...
A release? Who was detained? (Sorry, couldn't resist temptation. Aren't we all into temptation business anyways?)

It is ok.
I dont get the big fuss about tabs. My fingers do ALT Tab faster than I can click on another tab.
Is there someway to get the F E V F etc menu back across the top?

i found that when i surf https://terb.cc, and click on a link, it doesn`t open a new tab, but rather a new browser window! any suggestions why?

I found a few sites that work in IE6 but not IE7, which is a little annoying.

Are you kidding use firefox it has hundreds of add ons to customize your browser. Not to mention all the useful tools.

No more spoofing...

I installed IE 7 and media player 11. The media player update solved some issues I was having with MP 10, but IE 7 was a bit tempermental, it does not allow spoofing and it contains the password in the address update that prevents linking to a website from a link like this ...

(one of the Service Packs also installed it before, but there is a fix you can get from some websites that uninstalls it). anyway IE 7 includes it.
