Allotments 4 All

Have Firefox 1.5 browser, but today 19/10 --IE7 has been released, should I switch  to IE7 or not  ? ?

I'm going to wait till it's issued as an automatic download to test.  Reckon the later I wait the more glitches will have been sorted and patches issued.

Jill,
    Just been advised Firefox 2, is going to be released next week, this also could be good.

Yes, I saw they had a trial version to download.  Again I'll wait a while ;)

There are numerous problems with IE7 which can cause your computer to crash and disable HP products see here http://www.idf50.com/clubhouse/viewtopic.php?t=41990.
this article also gives instructions as to how to block this download when it appears in your update programmes

wouldn't touch IE7 with a barge pole mainly cos i hate MS with a passion.

i'll hang on a bit until i hear some feedback about firefox 2 as well.  i've had enough of being a big company's beta tester cos of the laziness of their programmers.

always been happy with firefox up til now though.

HI

I think that part of the problem is the security tied up with vista.

It stops you being able to record usernames and passwords, i had problems using vista with an older version of outlook and i kept having add the password for my mailbox ( a pain in the butt ).

I believe that in the new version of IE they have locked it down so its almost unusable but you can amend the security to a lower levels but that must stop people blaming microsoft for viruses etc...
