the is the unofficial official version of IE7 here is some stuff that has been added to the new IE browser

 

-Phising Filter to phish out the fake sites

-pop up blocker is in its new location instead of going to tool internet options to tweak it just go to tools

-also they have manage add-ons that are pick up by progrmas like yahoo for instance

-rss feeds

 

-now with the tabs if you just started ie it will havee a blank tab when you click on it it will be like a new window except that it will be blank and then a new tab will follow right next to it.

 

 

everything else is just the same, the only thing im not to fond of is where the url bar is at you can see it it is up top and meh hopefully they put it backdown to its home on release

 

the beta is about 11k file

well I have to say that I personally dont like it, I downloaded it at a friends house (well I'm not going to risk my own computer with a pre release Microsoft product). I dont know what it was it just felt a little rushed I got the impression that some of the features were implemented poorly, Tabbed browsing in particular I felt that it was just there cos everyone else has it, and it was more of an afterthought than a genuine feature. That said I do like the small button next to the tab bar which opens a new tab. But my biggest problem with it (apart from I suspect they have done very little 'under the hood') is that the interface seems cluttered (and yeah I also absolutely hate the fact that you cannot move the tab bar I mean whos 'great' idea was it to put the toolbar at the bottom when nearly every other app has it right at the top.

I heard that Microsoft is copying the same features to that of Firefox. Additional tabs in the same window will be used, along with more customised features to make it easier to manage. Personally, if they can simply add as much added security and abilities as Firefox, I will only ever consider using it for FPT and Control Panel work only. Other than that, I'm sticking with Firefox because they're free, and they rely on people's donations to be productive. In order to get donations, they have to make the best product available to the public. Firefox has simply been fantastic for me, and I would never look or consider changing to Internet Explorer again. Besides, Microsoft products tend to be bulky and buggy. Mozilla makes Linux too as well I believe, which happens to be one of the most secure and stable true (free) Operating Systems out there.I may try Internet Explorer 7 when the final version comes out. I only hope they make it compatible with Windows 2000, but I heard somewhere that they won't (as usual). :)
