IE 7 bugs abound

[news=http://images.slashdot.org/topics/topicie.gif]People didn't lose any time in finding bugs in the latest preview release of Internet Explorer 7.

It's been but a day since Microsoft publicly released a test version of Internet Explorer 7, but Internet news groups and blogs are already teeming with bug reports. Also, one security researcher claims he found a security vulnerability in the new Web browser.

Issues reported several times include compatibility problems with McAfee security software and trouble installing the browser due to unnamed anti-spyware and antivirus tools. Some testers also said using certain features or surfing to specific Web sites caused the browser to hang or crash.

This is beta, that's why the bugs. When it goes final. That's the test.

Besides imo there's only 1 browser worth using. It's not discovering on the web. It doesn't display a brilliant cunning. It's a creative work, especially a musical composition numbered to designate the order of a composer's works.:pimp:

It looks pretty clean and runs well. I have read a bit about it not being that stable in terms of things like css rendering but I doubt that would worry a typical user.

Works fine for me.

Of course Beta 1 was a total piece of shit.

It sucks for them that they won't let you use their new beta browser on pirated software.
