Internet explorer 7 beta 2[views:1630][posts:30]______________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 11:07am - the_reverend ""] http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie7/default.mspx I'm thinking about installing it... |
| __________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 12:08pm - pam nli ""] I use fire fox, I don't like IE. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 12:14pm - the_reverend ""] I use both at the same time. firefox has a lot of CPU process time issues |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 12:17pm - the_reverend ""] plus IE works wonderfully with outlook to dnd images. and you can run more than one IE process at the same time. oh yeah, and.. [img] |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 12:18pm - Hungtableed ""] I use Firefox, but this new IE has tabbed browsing. I think I'm gonna check it out. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 3:08pm - the_reverend ""] I'm using it now... wow, it's really nice. all the fonts are better looking. it's sort of like safari meets firefox. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 3:08pm - the_reverend ""] oh and the "search" thing in the top corner has yahoo and msn in it, but if you click on it, you can add more providers. I added google right away. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 3:21pm - the_reverend ""] ok, I just had to reboot it. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 4:53pm - the_reverend ""] whoah... it updated the LnF of outlook too. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 4:53pm - the_reverend ""] I guess this is the "future".... vista... |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 5:04pm - RustedAngel ""] i need a validated copy of windows xp. gay. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 5:20pm - the_reverend ""] yeah, luckily I did it on my computer that seriously has windows on it |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 9:53pm - infoterror ""] I USE FIREFOX TO DOWNLOAD IE NO XP SERIAL CHECK LOL |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 10:02am - hungtableed ""] infoterror said:I USE FIREFOX TO DOWNLOAD IE NO XP SERIAL CHECK LOL ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Same here |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 10:21am - JayTUS nli ""] I downloaded this yesterday and I like it so far. I wasn't sure at first but I like the way the favorites go and how there is less junk on the top. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 12:01pm - the_reverend ""] I was a little confused cause the refresh button is mia |
| _________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 1:04pm - pam nli ""] can you add your own buttons in the tool bar like in firefox? cause I'm totally unwilling to sacrifice that. |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 8,2006 12:17pm - ra using ie7 ""] cracked that gay windows validation shit finally, IE7 looks decent so far, thought it's using way more memory than firefox. IE7: 55,428k Firefox: 10,600k |
| _________________________________________ [Feb 8,2006 12:25pm - DreamingInExile ""] I'm gonna give it a shot here in the office. alot of people I know have complained about IE7 so far, but this computer already has the PC HIV I think, so I really don't care what else goes wrong with it. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 8,2006 12:29pm - the_reverend ""] firefox at 10MB ahahahahahahahahaha my ff runs at 120-200MB constantly. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 8,2006 12:31pm - the_reverend ""] it's running at 113MB when I posted this |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 8,2006 12:34pm - RustedAngel ""] I also just had only RTTP open in both just for that reading. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 8,2006 12:38pm - the_reverend ""] I have 10 tabs in ff. I like all the new fonts. |
| _________________________________________ [Feb 8,2006 12:50pm - DreamingInExile ""] I'm not keen on the new fonts. IE: 75,900 K -> 2 tabs FF: 60,400 K -> 9 tabs hmm.... can anyone say resource whore? |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 8,2006 12:53pm - the_reverend ""] I just tried with 11 tabs, all the same pages IE: 90MB Firefox: 123MB ie is a notorious memory hog. but firefox is a notorious CPU hog. |
| _________________________________________ [Feb 8,2006 12:58pm - DreamingInExile ""] true, I still much prefer Firefox over IE though. I have to use IE for most of the stuff at work, but I use Firefox when I can. I've got enough CPU horsepower to hold me over her ein the office, but memory is at a premium. I hate that these machines have only 512MB of ram, that's shared with the video... |
| ________________________________________ [Feb 8,2006 1:00pm - DreamingInExile ""] IE7 also hates WindowBlinds, the interface gets all mucked up unless you exclude it from skinning |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 8,2006 1:03pm - the_reverend ""] I use both at the same time. they are always both open. I have 1-3GB of ram in all my computers so I can forget about ie. firefox starts will just start taking up all my CPU process time, especially when there is flash on the pages and then I have to close it. I just installed version 1.5.1 and it's been better behaved. one thing I hate about ff1.5.1 is that it's tab ordering is messed up. in version 1.4 and below, I could hit tab and then enter to send my emails, now I cant. |

| ________________________________________ [Feb 8,2006 2:07pm - DreamingInExile ""] hmm... there's a feature that I really like in IE7, if you hit Ctrl+Q you get screen shots of all the tabs you have open and you can visually select them by clicking... |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 8,2006 4:05pm - infoterror ""] Firefox is slow, handles local files badly, and has a bastardized interpretation of HTML/CSS that's even worse than IEs. Opera does some super-stupid things as well. Sucks that Microsoft is the market leader because they're the best, doesn't it? |
