Its a little bit different, but not bad

BTW I had to install it because when setting up the BT Home Hub it installed its own browser over to top of IE

I was NOT impressed!

I just use ad-aware every once in a while sorts that out, never had any problems with IE personally.

+ you normally have to be going to some of the dodgier sites on the web to pick up spyware anyway.

Or using filesharing programs without using your brain at the same time, thats the quickest way to viruses & spyware. but i don't use filesharing for that very reason, I don't trust it so thats not a problem

I installed IE7 last night too.

Tis a bit of getting used to but is ok so far.

I've never had a prob with IE either and i've done a few dodgy sites, (mostly inadvertantly).

Tried IE7 on me bro's pc, seemed pretty good. Not sure I can get it myself due to having a less than cosha copy of XP

Firefox for me too.

Wouldn't go near IE of any version given a choice.

Scarily enough, everyone should have IE7 soon, as it should be part of an automatic update released around the beginning of November.
