Internet Explorer 7

November 4, 2006

Internet Explorer 7 is now available for download. I installed it on both desktops and my laptop. Installation was easy and seamless. The experience so far is great. Microsoft changed the toolbars a bit which will get some getting used to after many years of previous versions with little user interface changes. Two big pluses: tabbed browsing ala Firefox and auto detection of RSS feeds and essentially using IE7 a pretty doggone good feed reader. The only thing I don't like is a requirement to name a default search engine that permanently takes up toolbar space. I use Google's search add-on which is highly customizable and feature rich and makes IE7 search redundant even though it defaulted to Google in my installations.

A good review can be found at HelpWithWindows.com.
