It pisses me off. It tries to be Firefox (visually), but it's not (still doesn't show websites properly). Arrgh. *Shakes fist*

It tries to copy Firefox, but fails miserably.
I think it looks like Avant, but is much crappier.

On IE7, the text is really blurry. I hate it. _dry.gif
And the toolbars aren't versatile and you can't really move them around.

^ Haha, true, true.

I was surprised how much they it tried to be similar. The AOL Explorer's the same way. When I got that, I though AOL had bought out Mozilla and I was like "NOOOOOOOOOOO!" because everything AOL touches gets ruined. Turns out, they were just being copy cats and all was well with the Internet browsing world. happy.gif

Heh. I can't even download IE 7 so I just forgot about it. I'm assuming it's pretty crappy. Firefox works much better for me, although I do have some problems with ActiveX and stuff. But nothing major. happy.gif

IE7 disappointed me this time around.
Bunch of adware and stuff. I use Firefox now, except when working with editing things like Xanga and Myspace, since some things look kinda funky on Firefox.

does anyone else have a wonky display on websites? like on graphics showcase, some of the images don't show up.

i'm using IE7 until i get sick of it. i'm only sticking to it now because of the shiny newness. sue me, i'm easily amused.

I haven't downloaded it yet and I don't think I'm going to. I use Firefox for forums and IE6 for Xanga and MySpace. It works for me, although I might try IE7.

Uh, who cares? If your computer is that slow, you might as well use it as a paperweight. Besides, mind sourcing this? I'm sure if it does, it's very minimal.

Internet Explorer, the worst browser ever. "OMGAH we have tabs now, we own." It looks horrible, the layout for buttons is horrible. It's just ewwww

I finally downloaded it when my computer ran its update check.
It's really not that great. It displays Arial on Xangas weird and it's not that much faster compared to IE6. I miss IE6, actually. >_>;
