Anybody using IE 7?

I just downloaded it and am giving it a test run.

Seems to have some pretty cool features, however the goal was to have more space to view websites and I am not getting that. At least not yet.
:cool:

Just downloaded it this morning. Dont see what the hubbub is all about other than the tabbed browsing feature. Already had that with Firefox. And I cannot seem to locate the homepage button.

It is a blue roofed house on the same line as the tabs.

I am about 99% Mozilla at this point. I don't care for IE.

Thanks Lakey! Just as I looked right in front of me! Although I do like the smoother appearance of TT. I will stick with Mozilla!

so far so good as I downloaded it two weeks ago. Took me awhile to find the refresh button and favorites but then again I may be slow. It has only quit on me once so far and sent an error report.

In Windows I just use the “Windows key” + “m” to minimize everything on the screen.

While in college, my roommate had a script that he could run that with one click would open a very elaborate spreadsheet. It was pretty slick.

We used to have a script like that it was known as the "boss" key.

There was one in a solitaire game a long time ago. One of the menu's had a "hide, the boss is coming" button. When you selected it, it turned into a spreadsheet with all kinds of numbers and a chart...

Thanks for the Windows+m tip. Works like a champ!!!:cool:

I think you are going to need the mplayer plug-in.

http://mplayerplug-in.sourceforge.net/

It plays fine for me.

It is the phishing scanner. Verifying that the webpage is legit.

Did you get those papers?
