    If he has FF running nice and stable, I don't see the harm in trying IE7 but I can't imagine a switch.

    Btw, do you surf in full screen mode (since you like screen real estate)?
    Well, I don't paint you with the same brush either. You aren't on here saying OMFG!11!! FF ROXOR!!1!!! IE SUX!!1!11 *ahem*

    I do not surf in full screen mode. tbh, I didn't know there was a such thing unless you're referring to the F11 thing?

    lol, it's my fault that ff blocks ads better than ie? if u prefer to see them that's ur business. i prefer not 2. ie isn't bad. i just prefer ff. i also like tabs. keeps taskbar more organized with 1 tab full of tabs than multiple instances. if u like to concentrate only on limited processes as u've mentioned u'd understand that.

    I like to have more than one IE window open and drag links from one to the other. Surfing in tabs means I need to be more accurate where I drag links to and us older members often have trouble with both focussing and hand/eye co-ordination.
    Thank fuck they made that optional.

    I don't need to go all the way to the taskbar to switch IE windows - I merely click in one to bring it to the front.

    I like to arrange toolbars my way and this was the biggest pain with IE7. That bloody 'control bar' thing was immovable in beta2 and plenty pf people were bitching very loudly about the fact. If M$ have decided we prefer it dangling there at the right-hand end of an empty and otherwise useless toolbar (with a non-tabbing config) then who am I to accuse them of ignoring users?

    Like it or not, Microsoft are not going to llisten to anyone about how they want their browser to look or perform.
    There are millions of users that only use their computer as it came out of the box and these are guaranteed loyal customers.

    According to M$ is actually a Microsoft Outlook Express bug.
