Just when you think that you will not see another version of Internet Explorer until the next ice age, the Microsoft came into the world with a completely new version of its powerful browsing application.
Its been so long in the making, that many Internet users are bored with waiting for Microsoft to update technology and look elsewhere, especially Firefox.
Now the big, bad world of the King of the browser in the mood to see the crown fought off, but it was enough to bring back the defectors?
Firstly, the new interface is streamlined definite improvement.
Microsoft essentially stripped so the menu bar and hide all the tools and features in a compact set of icons, subtly located in the upper right corner of the interface.
It allows you to view the page in a very large space for viewing. IE also finally decided to support the tabbed browsing. These include the New button to open the moment tab, plus the smart button Quick Tabs, which opens a thumbnail preview of all open tabs on a single screen, and, unlike Firefox, IE 7 is actually a section of the closure of each button.
You can even save a group of tabs as your home page, so they are all at startup. We also appreciate the print preview tool, which regulates the size of the paper pages Anda.IE 7 is improved by the integration of RSS. Every time you come across a site that supports View RSS, on the toolbar icon to change the typical orange color.
Click on it and you’ll be led to a page that shows all the feed for the site. Just click on subscribe to this feed link to add it to your favorites.
You can also subscribe by clicking on the icon of the small star on the left side. Unlike Firefox, however, is not a drop-down view of each element in the diet.
Favorites Center, opened by clicking on the big favorites star icon Divided, canals and history.
Security is usually one of the weakest points IE characteristics.
In addition to the pop-up version 7 also introduced anti-phishing filter. To try it out, we found a well-known phishing site, published in PhishTank. Unfortunately for us, the filters are not reported most of them. Protection from phishing attacks can cause IE 7s, but, at least, the browser combines the SSL security protocol 2 currently.
0 and 3. 0 and 1. 0 TLS, such as Firefox.
For all the improvements, IE is still far from perfect. Such as Firefox, IE does not pass Acid2 test, and even supports the latest standards.
We have found, the IE pull back and every time you open a new tab, part of the device and apply the new settings. You can add a large number of suppliers of the search panel and add-ons from the Microsoft website, but they are still in an amount less than an extension for Mozilla Firefox.
In addition, the IE 7 is actually limited to those who have XP SP2, and for some reason you need to disable antivirus and restart your computer to install it properly.
