IE7 makes its grand entrance into the world.
story @ Thursday, October 19th, 2006
1 day 1 bug, sounds like a routine day around Redmond. “less critical” vulnerability aside today is a big day for Microsoft as IE7 has been given it’s full release.
We expect millions of customers will upgrade to IE7 because it’s safer and easier. Some e-commerce and financial services companies like Paypal and VeriSign are endorsing IE7 because of its improved security for online transactions.
One interesting thing you’ll discover at that link is a new IE7 Addons page. I’m guessing they liked the whole Firefox community addons idea and thought - hey we should copy that.
I’ve been using IE7 (Vista version) for awhile now, and it’s much improved over 6, but I’ll still be sticking to Firefox as my main browser.
