I am always happy to hear positive things about ie7.  Most of the coments are negative and I feel sure I will be eventually upgrading to 7 and appreciate hearing good things about it.\n\nThanks again.  Keep passing the word.

I have had IE 7 beta and IE 7 for awhile and I haven't had any problems. If you want to get rid of it, just uninstall it and you will go back to your previous version.

Have you checked to see if there is an updated version of the "bigfix" program - you really don't want to uninstall IE7 if you can possibly avoid it - too many SYSTEM-WIDE security upgrades brought about by installing IE7 to neglect by reverting to IE6 (yes, even if you never use Internet Explorer to surf the web).\n\nGet on the phone and chase up Gateway - if they haven't yet updated their software to be compatible with IE7 then this is simply not good enough - they've had plenty of time to do so by now

A lot of people have experienced problems trying to install the new IE7.  And a lot of people have reported problems trying to use the IE7 even after they manage to get it installed.  In laymen's terms, there's still a lot of bugs in IE7 and it hasn't learned how to play nice with other programs.  There are so many possibilities why it failed to install properly. I'm just not smart enough to tell you how to fix it.  But I can make a few suggestions.  First, read through this help link about IE7 --- especially the sections about known problems and preinstallation guidelines.\n\nhttp://www.ie-vista.com/\n\nSecond, since you tried downloading it from Yahoo, (I'm guessing you clicked on the Yahoo link to download the "IE7 Optimized For Yahoo"), give their customer service people a call and ask them what they recommend since they're the ones telling people to upgrade to the latest and greatest. The number is 1-866-562-7219.\n\nAnd finally, if your ISP is someone other than a Yahoo provider (like AT&T Yahoo, Verizon Yahoo, etc.) I'd give them a call (or email) to find out if they have any known issues with IE7. Every time Microsoft has come out with a new version of Internet Explorer, there's a transition period where programmers from MS and programmers for other web sites have to put their heads together and revise the millions of lines of code needed for IE7 to play nice.  Hope some of this helps.\n\nplrr

1) Mozilla handles ALL website codes better (except for a few useless codes that nobody cares about)\n2) Explorer is buggy\n3) IE7 is even buggier, hence the term "BETA".

IE7 has a lot of problems and causing people grief.  It sounds like you've become victim to IE7 automatically turning on the Clear Type function.  This link will help explain it:\n\nhttp://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/1166/ie7_turn_off_cleartype\n\nI also found this help link written by a Microsoft MVP whose specialty has been Internet Explorer since 1999.  She offers some very good info about using IE7 as well as an extensive "known issues" section.  For example, do NOT try to repair or reinstall XP SP2  without first removing IE7.  Hope these links help.\n\nhttp://www.ie-vista.com/\n\nplrr

I tested all three beta versions of IE7 an installed the final version.  IE7 technology is actually copied from Linex.  An it is asbolute garbage.  \n\nThe entire program slows down your system to a crawl.  An I have broadband an it did not make a difference.  I even removed all the security out of Ie7 like phishing to scan each webpage.  An still IE7 ate up all my resources and slowed my pc almost to a hault. \n\nI removed the IE7 and you will get an automatic roll back to IE6 6.0  -- All of my speed came back.\n\nMinddoctor, France

read a review of IE7 VS Firefox 2 from a reputable site: http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-10442_7-6656808-1.html?tag=nl.e415\n\nI've installed both Firefox 2 and IE7, and I can only say that I agree with them.

The new Internet Explorer is currently in the beta stage, meaning it's being tested. It may work but it may as well cause problems, plus very few websites recognize it...

Ok, heres the best tip or tweak you could ever do to IE7, seriously.  Delete it.  Download Mozilla Firefox, at mozillafirefox.com. It's free, spam and virus free, faster, more dependable, and all around better.  IE comes with spam and viruses already in it they are just VERY hidden and take a while to come out.  You know the "tab browsing" IE7 JUST came out with, Mozilla had that since 2001 or 2002.  It's so much better. Trust me
