Default OT: Internet Explorer 7

Microsoft has released the new Internet Explorer 7. I'm very happy with Firefox which I'm using, so I'm wondering if there's any advantage in getting IE7.

What do you think? Have you tried IE7?

7 times the bugs, exploits, pop ups, crashes, malicious scripts, and spyware. Go IE7! Ya, I'll be downloading that soon.

Necessity at work. As is Netscape and Mozilla. You see, we get all kinds calling in having troubles.....

Used version 7 starting today. Suffering from a bout of interface poisoning......

Well I used IE7 in beta 1 and and it had a lot of problems. I now have the final release installed and it works a lot better. I don't really see any advantage to start using IE7 over IE6 though, at least not yet.

I'm giving it a try myself, but not too sure about it. The control bars are missing some of the buttons I liked, and I can't rearrange them to take up less room. Not very impressed so far.

The one positive point is I'm not having the script slowdowns I'm having in Firefox.

IE7, swing and a miss. FireFox still rules.
