| | Micrsoft confirmed what we've already expected. The new-coming explorer IE 7 will only be compatible with windows XP and newer. The two reasons why old dinosaurs that still use Windows 2000 and lower won't be able to use the new IE are:
1. state in which is the extended support of Windows 2000
and
2. mostly of technical nature (IE 7 is goin to have a few security updates and imporvements, which bases on the functionality of the new XP SP2 and this is the reason for its incompatibility with other versions of Windows)

Hopefully it won't require SP2 because thus far I have refused to download it. It wreaks havok on my wireless internet among many other things....probably doesn't matter though because so far I'm liking firefox. I just might be converted...

The only reason I'd get IE7 would be to test new sites I'm working on but if SP2 is a requirement, that's gonna be a pain in the ass.

Seriously.. If IE had tabbed interface, I would prefer IE than Firefox. Most of the sites dont show up properly on firefox. And the best example is Javascript effects. Check out Astahost forum on IE and Firefox, you will know the diffrence

Check out Astahost forum on IE and Firefox, you will know the diffrence That's rubbish. I hardly come across any sites that don't look right in Firefox. And if they don't look right, it's cos the designers/developers haven't done their job right in the first place and created a site that meets current web standards. As for javascript effects, I thought they'd died with the 90s (I certainly hope they have anyway).

Yes, I really hope that Internet Explorer 7 will actually be a new verison, not just a bunch of security patches thrown together. Something extra that I would like to see would be a built-in skinnable interface; I think that would make a lot of people consider Internet Explorer as their web browser of choice once again. Oh well, only time will tell, we jst gotta keep waiting. AmeriBass

I think this is going to work awfully even in XP. Probably it will need a really fast machine to run properly. They should make a dinamic browser, like Firefox or Opera, but a lot of people uses Explorer just because it comes with Windows so Microsoft doesnīt need to worry. They can release an awful browser and people will use it anyway just because donīt know others or whatever. I only expect another mix of features of other browsers with a worse interface and slower running.

I have no faith in microsoft anymore. they say that IE7 will be a better browser. a more secure browser. i'd say that within 6 months it will be plagued by the same sort of security problems the current versions have. I personally won't use it, and won't reccomend it to anyone. although i'm not one of those people who goes around and tries to install firefox on everyone elses computer.
