Well, I downloaded the newest version of IE. It has tabs etc., but it is
different. Unusual even. Only complaint is that the mouse freezes sometimes,
and the screen flashes black occasionally. I think I'll stick with Opera
until an update comes along.

Yeah I thried IE7 and found it mostly OK...but a bit buggy yet...
I'm going to wait for it to come off of Beta.

BTW: for a nice tabbed browser shell for IE6...give the Enigma browser a
try

I'm very happy with the Maxthon shell for IE here. It works fine over both
IE6 and IE7.
 
You cannot uninstall IE6. You have to install IE7 over it.

Yep...I just saw the news a few minutes ago and will probably try it now...
For me to be only one day late...is pretty good...
I'm usually 5 or 10 years behind :)

LOL. I installed it on all three machines here yesterday (I hadn't run any
of the betas) and it seems fine. I run it with the Maxthon shell here, which
runs over it without a problem, and my wife is running it natively.

I just installed it on my XP machine and it seems to be just fine.

No need to worry about a Beta release now!

Probably not a bad plan, though I haven't exactly known Opera to be stable
on any platform, either. One day, and IE7's already shown itself to have a
pretty nasty security flaw.

See Message-ID: <[email protected]>
 
Hi P,

If you read the Microsoft response to the security flaw you will find out it
is related to Outlook Express and not IE7.

I have installed IE7 on three machines and they all work absolutley fine,
two of them were upgraded from Beta 3, the installer simply removed beta 3
and installed the final release without any flaws.

Kind Regards

Andy W
