    Would like to hear some views on IE7, do you like it more than IE6 and why?


    ps, I also use Firefox so please don't mention that or any other browser, just want to hear about your views on IE7, thanks.

    It's quite good if you use the IE7Pro add-on.

    It's fast. It has lots of control options. It has tabbed browsing.

    Well don't start thinking about that just yet! Mozilla 3.0 is coming out soon!

    Though the tabbed browsing feature is an important update to IE 7, but it loads very slowly on my PC. So I rarely use it.

    While I don't use it often you'd have to be a fool not to upgrade for security reasons alone ,that and better features ,its faster, tabs etc. Why ask opinions try it yourself .

    I prefer Firefox but do like Safari tho its a Beta . If using IE 6 why would you not upgrade to 7 ? Problem with keys or WGA ,so easy to get around that .

    but IE7 looks really-really awful in XP, it sticks out (just like WMP 11), why didn't they also make a proper XP skin? or is there an option?

    I don't like either IE6 and IE7. IE6 is not secure anymore so you have to use IE7.

    My favorite browser is Opera but certain website don't like Opera so I have to use IE7.

    Ever since I installed that addon I'm totally eating up IE7 now. I mean when Safari was released I knew I was looking for an alternative to IE7 Now I'm not.

    Get WindowsBlinds

    Skin XP to a Vista Clone or better yet Longhorn. Takes a lil bit of work tho' with icons if you do it yourself and custom fixes to WMP to match Vista. I've actually changed mine since...
