Have you tried the internet explorer 7? Well, some of my friends told me that it has better options and is faster than the previous version. I'm not sure of this, do you think downloading it is worth it?

I'm using it and I think that it's ok, there are some newer layouts to get used to and you might have to make some adjustments in your security, like being sure that your spyware and virus protections are updated and active after you download Explorer 7. So far, so good... it's working well and I haven't had any bad glitches, yet! Have an excellent day! :)

Do you mean that there's less problems in it? But what interest me is it's performance. Did you experienece some difference in the performance, like web pages taking less time load?

Yes, the pages seem to load faster than with the old version. But emphasize security because, just as the new version of anything gets released, the bad guys are out there trying to mess it up...

I try to keep up with tech and i've downloaded and installed the latest versions of internet explorer , opera and firefox. From my personal experience, i prefer firefox. All the browsers weigh heavily on computer memory but i found firefox to be the fastest out of all of them. Explorer is all well and good but i want not only performance but speed as well and thats where explorer disappoints. My 2 cents...

Ok, as many are recommending firefox I'll try installing it, and I hope it's worth while doing it.

nope. i dont think so. ive tried it, well, if you dont have updated hardware, it would be a problem as it decreases in it speed. howver, if you use mozilla firefox, un-updated hardware wouldnt be much of a problem. i ont want to use IE7, ever. ^__^

Man on car - actin man caught in action!
My priority is speed, I too have heard of monzilla firefox but have never used it, so you're suggesting that it's better than IE7?

I've used it, it's faster and more secure than previous versions, but still doesn't beat Firefox, for me...
