    Yeah so i just downloaded IE7 (I know I won't use it since I use FF) for fun. Fully installed etc. etc.

    I browsed a little bit, with the tabs like FF and that kind of stuff.

    But to be honest I like IE6 more :|
    On other forums people are saying that IE7 does look better (I agree), but browses like ---- (agree as well).


    Conclusion: What IE version do you like the most, and I'm NOT talking about how silverly the navigation barr looks like and ----, I'm purely talking about the browsing and quality.

    IE may be the stupidest browser ever, but 7 does add on some security that 6 didnt have, pfishing for one...

    My only problem with 7 is that its running slower then it was with 6. Tab browsing is just like FF, it does support transparency like FF. so i'd have to say 7

    I like IE7 more than IE6.

    But FF is still better then IE7 or IE6, IE7 is slower..

    IE6 is a horrible browser, I don't know how I could have ever used it before I found firefox. IE7 is much improved but not yet up to par with the likes of firefox and opera.

    They both suck because they don't work on my computer for some reason, meaning I can't view "IE only"pages and Flash. -.-

    IE 7 lags like hell, even though FF uses more memory usage...I don't get it...anyways, it's still an improvement over 6.

    I think IE7 is much better than IE6 and Firefox infact. It is a fantastic web browser. I really love the tab options and the way you can swap them around so easily. It makes life so much easier. I like this is a fantastic prodcut from Microsoft and I will continue to use it.

    I am surprised you liked Internet Explorer 6 better than 7. 6 is oldern times :P.
