IE7 beta

Used and abused by more than 80% of Windows users worldwide, this is a much more secure version after IE6 had so many updates. They've introduced tabbed browsing now. (I wonder why... lol.) Faster loading time, even from a 'clean' start (Much faster than FireFux anyway!:)) With Anti-phishing filter to prevent users from being had. A Pop-up blocker for those annoying whatchucallits. More features to be released with IE7.

I'm gettin it cuz' :
  • Security on top of compatibility and extensibility
  • beta means you can help Microsoft by reporting any beta bugs
  • Now with tabbed browsing!
  • Phishing filter, Protected Mode, Enhanced Validation SSL, Script restricting using Zones, are just some of the new features
  • Updating to IE7 beta also updates the IE OCX controls on the machine making any other apps which use the control updated.
  • 100% FREE!

Naah! Forget it cuz' :

  • Still in beta. Run at your own risk! Or wait for a stable release
  • No support for Win2k or any other older OSes. (They say it's because they've based security on the XP Sp2 updates.)
  • Not for Opera or Firefox 'foaming' fanboys
