Who is using IE7 beta?

[Kalmah]

I like alot of the features. They seemed to have copied much of Firefox but improved on it as well. I still need to change some of the security settings because it's giving me trouble posting messages here.

It seems like it might be a little slower than IE6 though.. might be that phishing filter slowing it down.

What do you think of it?

I'm not nerdy enough to try new browsers... FF just suits me fine...

I think you are missing out

And isn't using anything other than IE or Netscape pretty much considered nerdy anyways?

I'll stick with FF here, too many troubles with IE in the past, especially since it is beta.

1) nobody uses netscape anymore
2) many people who aren't much into computers use FF as well, for it's better popup blocking and tabbed browsing.

Even without tabs (which I could never go back to not using) adblock alone makes FF worth it.

Apparently my neighbor uses netscape.. (she asked me to setup her wireless network yesterday.. got $50 for a 20 minute job)
I saw that she had the new IE beta installed and liked the looks of it. I think the tabbed browsing in it is superior to FF.
The pop-up blocker in IE7 is brutal.. wouldn't even allow the reply message window on here to open up without my consent. (I quickly changed that though)

bah, I probably look like I'm trying to talk people into to trying it.. not the case. Just givinga heads-up.

Its nice but nowhere near the point that would get me to switch. It'll make a nice tabbed browsing for people who don't need a lot of features. Personally, I don't like how the tabs are handled on IE7, especially how the New Tab button is always to the right of the last tab. To be quite honest, IE7 doesn't seem like anything special at all. If I really wanted to stick with an IE based browser, I'd probably use something along the lines of Maxthon.

I use IE7 RC3 when I have to, but Proxomitron + Opera is still my favorite combo.

running IE7 Beta 3...not many problems here.

though i dont really like the layout, but that is to be expected because IE6 is been around for a damn long time.

I dunno how much I like it. I have to use it when I go to my friend's house and it's alright I guess. Nothing about it is really innovative, they just caught up to the game with the tabbed browsing and whatnot.

You were nerdy enough to move to FF from something before (most likely IE).......
