If some of you have tried installing IE7 before, you will have noticed that it too has a built-in search box in it (a first in Microsoft’s browser): The focus of Google’s concern is a slender box in the corner of the browser window that allows users to start a search directly instead of first going to the Web site of a search engine like Google, Yahoo or MSN. Typing a query and hitting “Enter” immediately brings up a page of results from a designated search engine.

One problem is it crashes on multiple instances (more than one browser window or tab)! I don't know the issue here but I never encountered such a thing in firefox. I disabled tabs for the meanwhile. It's a great feed reader, though, which was why I downloaded it in the first place. Never really used IE to surf, too vulnerable. If anyone is still tracking this, this info might be of use:

"c:\\IE7B2P-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe /x" without the quotes :) Added info.. you don’t need Winrar or any other program to extract the contents you just run the command line and enter the name of the program then add a “/x” to extract the file. ex. “c:\\IE7B2P-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe /x” without the quotes :)

It offers nothing new versus Firefox or Opera. Also, does it still have activex? if so, then it still presents the same security risks. Personally don't waste time trying to download it. Since people all over this blog are complaining of faltering broadband connections, there are better uses for bandwidth. Why bother with IE? It offers nothing new versus Firefox or Opera.

Maxthon programmers got invited in their conference by microsoft... and apparently this is what happened.... seriously im not impressed =) still looking for customizable mouse gestures (which will work best if tied with vista), plugin-based utilities, custom shortcut keys, built-in popup, and flash-ad or active x, content filter, float ad blocker, c/o maxthon, as well as Profile ala netscape/mozilla. Let's see the final release. hahaha it’s a freakin weak clone of maxthon with some security enhancements!
