1. Not really... and the code is bloated... Unless you have a very fast
machine it slows you down...


Nice effort though MS!

2. Something was weird then because Firefox was slow on my computer..
..and it's always screwing up in one way or the other.

After using IE 7 for 3 days ..I've uninstalled Firefox...tired of fuckin' with it.

Different strokes and all that...

3. It reminds me of the Opera browser alot....
...I like the idea, but it has had a couple of problems with bookmarks, i.e. favorites. I've had to re-bookmark a couple of sites a couple of times. Otherwise, it has been O.K. Like I said, it does remind me of Opera, and Opera had/has a lot of potential.

4. I just tried it, and uninstalled it just as quick!
Yuck....I downloaded it, installed and when I opened it, it was a complete mess. Nothing made sense, the taskbars/toolbars were all over the place. I uninstalled it and dumped it...

5. They altered the interface and it's not user friendly.
MS used to chirp like a canary about user-friendliness.

Why the flip-flop?

Because it's a new version, meant for Vista (an even bigger bloat)...

6. It is (essentially) a different Browser. After a day or 2 of using it ...
..I really like it.

But that's OK..Someday you'll be BEGGING me to download it and I'll turn you down.

(What?? YOU want to get IE7...Ha..Ha..I think not..) :hi:

7. Yeah, man do I love
viruses and spyware! Go Internet Explorer! I don't care that it has more holes then swiss cheese or that people can very easily steal my personal information when I use it!
