Posted by Proto ManSo, has anyone tried the latest beta yet? It would seem that they have fixed a lot of the bugs from Beta 2 preview. I just might keep this one...

Posted by higbvuybActually, some people who know more about computers than you said that it was about as good as Firefox, if not better*. And, faster too.
[spoiler]*for the average user, Firefox is obviously better for people who at least know what a command prompt is.[/spoiler]

Quoting Klarth: NEWSFLASH: INTERNET EXPLORER SUCKS.
I've said it before, and I will say it again. I never have had any problems with Internet Explorer myself.
Anyhow, here are some of the problems that I had with the with Beta 2 preview that they have fixed in this version.
[LIST]
[*]The toolbar was a bit buggy, a tool would sometimes dissapear and re-appear while I was doing my normal browsing.
[*]The new tabs opened can be made to actually go to the home page instead of being blank.
[*]It doesn't conflict with McAfee anymore.
[/LIST]
Plus, since the Beta 2 Preview has come out, Google finally came out with a toolbar specifically for IE 7, Google Toolbar Beta, which I think is pretty sweet too.

This happens to me on IE 6. It does not happen on Firefox. As such, I use Firefox.

What if we want to save time by having them blank and thus not wasting bandwidth? What you've just said isn't a good thing.

Antivirus software is for retards.

That may well be because Internet Explorer is developed by a multi-billion dollar corporation with all the resources it needs right in its hands, whereas Firefox is a relatively small open-source effort.

That has never even happened to me on IE 6. But different things happen on different computers, so I am not going to dispute it.

I happen to like having my tabs open to a webpage like you would opening up a complete new window, and not being blank. Other people probably thought so too, which is why they put that in there.

I think many members here would agree, that statement right there is retarded.

...You're not obliged to have multiple blank tabs open at one time. You do realise this, right?

Poll them, then.

Yes, I know that. But I at least want it to come up to the home page when I open something new, like it would if you opened a new window.

Fine, I will...
