Installed the beta, tried it for two days, got rid of it. Installed the final released, tried it for a day, uninstalled it and set Windows up not to install it again. Annoying crufty garbage.
Just downloaded it. Looks good. Anybody else out there using it? Any advice or tips??

We were warned about installing it in work for anyone, not for a few months anyway afaik. Haven't seen it myself. They are really feicin' about with the css stuff in the browser again apparantly.
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
All our windows/virus/firewall updates in work are installed by a seperate program - not windows updater. During the week it installed a blocker for the internet explorer 7 installer.
Doesn't really bother me, I use Opera or Firefox, IE is usually the last resort
I've been using it for months and I think it's the business.
Press the alt key to see your normal menu options.
Type multiple pages as your default homepage and they'll all launch together when you start up the browser.
You might take a while to get used to it if you haven't used Firefox before. The usual suspects will slate Microsoft products, just for the sake of it. Make up your own mind.

Have it at home. Its OK. I have the "old" menus as I like my drop down favourites.

Your favourites will still "drop down" if you click on the star in the top left. the +star lets you add favourites.

I know. I just meant I prefer the old way. No biggie (although mine are bookmarks, not favourites - Bring back Netscape!!!)
Other features are handy. I never really got into Mozilla. Have never tried Opera

I like IE7, but Firefox 2.0 is still ahead, especially as it has a spellchecker! It doesn't seem to work on my laptop but on my desktop it's deadly.

Been using it since BETA 3, its been grand...
nobody notice prob with it then ?
when i go back to some pages i have to press F5 to refersh the page for the new stuff to appear !
also have to do the same when logging onto some websites
Converted to Firefox couple of years ago & i've had no interest in going back to IE.
I can't understand why people persist with Internet Explorer when Firefox is streets ahead of it. Version 2 has also been released.
Don't bother with any IE and just switch to Firefox if you have any sense.
In fairness since IE7 came out the gap to Firefox has closed and to my mind only reopened at all with the release of Firefox 2.0.
I tried Opera for a while but didn't really like it.

Got IE7 and have to say it looks class. I prefer the way it is now.
I'm not surprised that Firefox came up in this thread. Just wondering could someone explain why they think Firefox is better than IE.
I'd prefer it if someone didn't. If you want to know the difference, try them both and compare them.
Microsoft have closed the feature gap, but I'll stick with Firefox for actually rendering pages according to web standards.
I'm pretty sure IE7 is compliant to a same or better standard than Firefox. A lot of sites that were hacked to support v5-6 don't work in IE7 because of that.
I'm a Firefox user these days btw, so I don't want any accusations of fanboism.

Last reports I saw said it was near-as-dammit to CSS2 compliance anyway, dunno about XHTML. Perhaps they stripped out some compliance beforehand. I stand by my comment about rendering though, I've tried it and it mangles some sites (for the right reasons).
