Quite a bit improved from the previous version from what I've seen.

I downloaded it the other day. I'm seeing a big difference, for the better.

My husband is a Beta tester for Microsoft and has been using this for a few months. Personally, I really don't like it. It is way too confusing for me!! I like my IE the way it is!! My husband tells me that eventually I won't have a choice, that I will have to use it!! Wahhhhh!! LOL!!

I've had it since beta, but I still use Firefox mostly.

too little, too late

not even 24 hours in:

Barely 24 hours old, IE 7 has its first vulnerability (http://secunia.com/advisories/22477/)

I downloaded it earlier and I'm not liking it. I never liked Firefox, I always prefered IE but now IE is pretty much the same. Hopefully I'll get used to it....

besides the security of firefox, at least compared to IE, I always loved the tabbed browsing. Thats why I left IE to begin with.

I d/led IE 7 earlier, but I think I'll stick w/ Firefox. I'm so used to it now, plus I'm addicted to Firefox themes, hehe.

I just downloaded it. I really like everything except for two things:

1. I cannot move my Menu Bar to be way on top situated just below the title bar. And, my Home buttons I want to move all the way to the left side. I don't like how they are way on the right side. Anyone find how to customize this? It won't let me move them, and they are not locked.

2. The text quality is so soft that it really tires out my eyes. :( How can I change the text to be much crisper?

The text quality is the one I would prefer most. If I can't get my text to be crisp quality, then I am afraid I will go back to 6. My eyes tire out too quickly, and that's not good for me.

Can anyone help?

I'm a FireFox person. My boyfriend is a complete computer geek (he used to be a professional game player) and he got me into using Mozilla. I cannot stand IE.
