Default fao Dan!

Just noticed on some other post you mentioned you were running IE7!

How do you find it, recommend it?

I'm downloading it for my standalong inet machine at work just for something to do really! Is it reliable, any neat quirks or tricks?

or am i wasting my time

ok im not liking it lol....it seems HORRIBLY slow at loading pages? Currently using firerfox which is instant at loading pages, IE7 is taking literally minutes to open pages??!?

not to mention using over 50Mb RAM to run there's a suprise, and what i hate most about MS products!

Which Dan did you want ?

I run IE7 @ home and at work, find it ok. Although, i much prefer firefox and some of the add in's that it has.

Remember that it is still a beta version, and there will be bug's / glitches with it.

PMSL, next time put my whole name then

It's not as good as firefox IMO, mind you, i have weather forecast running, and the ability to change my music in it, and ad script blocker running, which blocks all javascript running on sites unless you allow it
