    just had a quick tour of the site and i think i'll stick to Firefox - the only part that seems to be different is that they got an information point that informs you whether the site is a known phising site or not...

    Does anyone know the advantages of IE7 over Firefox?

    Well IE7 will be compatible with the windows update site and any other site which uses ActiveX controls bear in mind that this functionality is what led to the plethora of malware and spyware in the first place. Hopefully Microsoft have put some reigns on what web sites can do without your intention.

    Just done the biz,

    Have FF and IE7, have had beta for a bit.

    Its OK apart from the TFT, LCD technology. it basically screws up how you want to see stuff.

    Other than that, its OK. try it and see.

    FF is still my default although I am wavering

    Good question, it looks like IE7 is going to be pushed as a high priority update at some stage. Watch the chaos as users go crazy with the new browser, at least ‘favourites’ gets migrated, that always seems to be a top priority with users for some reason! Is it that hard to remember google.co.uk? :biggrin

    I think that IE7 is a big improvement over IE6. I still use IE in conjunction with FF because both have advantages over the other in certain aspects.
