You know...I typically use Opera and Firefox for this reason, but the other 80% of the population uses Internet Explorer.
With the latest release, my page looks different (not like it should).
Anyone else having IE nightmares with the update?

IE 6.0 was messing with my site a bit, I fixed that. IE 7.0 comes in and messes up things again. But what can you do, that happens all the time.

I am not downloading IE 7...I have heard of too many people having computer problems after doing so.
Dell Technical support advised me also not to download IE 7.
Just what I have heard thus far about it.

It is apparently part of an automatic windows update. Which reminds me, I need to turn those off...

Don't download IE 7 for now. It causes a lot of nightmares, from the latest reviews I have read of several forums...
... and simply deleting it isn't very easy to do either once installed!

That sucks because it's already on my system. But that's why I have a dual boot system with Linux Ubuntu (hehe).

Hmmm... just hope Microsoft has gotten it stable as of now. Good thing you have a dual-boot system! smileys/smiley17.gif

MS came out with a kit that blocks automatic download of IE7 so if you don't already have it you can keep it from downloading.

Yup, I usually avoid new IE release like the plague. :)
