Browsers: What do you like/dislike about Internet Explorer 7?

(NT) Fair play, we all have our likes and dislikes.

Retalliation

I have never heard of the word "COMPUSLORY". If it was my error, then fine! It don't bother me. You see, I was having a bit of fun, like some links I've posted in some of my posts here. If you had anything about you, you'd take it as you wanted and be done with it. If not, fine!

You're the one who's getting all worked up here and in a tangle. I'm not. I'm as relaxed as can be and -surprisingly- I will actually help those who need it. I make suggestions, I crack jokes, hey, I even sometimes make a snap at someone. But that's the internet. You've gotta take it with a pinch of salt. I've been down the bad end, was nearly put off CNET by the Admins and Mods because I was getting all worked up about people who praised Microsoft. Then I thought, hey! Each to their own. And so I changed. If people want to use IE, that's fine, I offered a solution to someone the other day and they were eternally grateful.

What I DON'T like is when people come in, with silly remarks when clearly they haven't researched the facts.

I have no tolerance for belligerent behaviour. Been there, done that. IF you keep posting at the rate you do on this forum just to insult (me or anyone else, like the masses who agree that Microsoft is just one big huffup) then I'm sure the Mods will jump on you before the citizens do.

Oh, and I'm two legged, and stand on feet.

Ok

I didn't mean to imply I had support of the Moderators but more support of the people who aren't that happy with Microsoft. I'm glad poiznous's and my posts were deleted because they were clogging up the forum. However, did you also notice that poiznous was basically targetting any post that implied the person didn't like IE7, and gave them a completel mouthful?

That was really horrid.

Alright.

But who exactly are you? All these qualifications on paper don't make you any more righteous to say "Do you understand" and post things that make you sound like you own the place.

Originally, I was only having a joke, and I admit I was over-exuberant, but don't think for one second that I am going to or ever will bow down to someone like you just because you have an arm's length list of studies: I'll be honest; learning from wrote is not the same as being intelligent: the latter comes naturally.

And for anyone else's benefit, I'm in the process of installing Suse LINUX, but I use Windows as well for ease and compatibility.

Besides, I'd actually like to discuss IE, not like Poiznous did and simply joined the forum to offend people - don't get me wrong, but I join forums with the intention of participating and helping, but when people post misstaded ideas blantantly claiming that IE is better than Firefox and all that it's more secure, of course it's going to provoke reaction! The CNET terms and conditions must have been violated a dozen times over with the aggro that poiznous was dishing out.

What do you think of IE?

In reply to: That should about do it... by John.Wilkinson 

I found IE7 to be of good and bad assets. But, it didn't suit me so I removed it.

Besides, I now use Windows 2000 again so I won't be seeing IE6 soon.

How do "I" like IE7?

I like IE7 fine except. . . . . . The bottom bar cannot be moved. Now to have to "full page" with F11, which I do not like to do. There is no feature to do a print preview. IE6 had both, an option to add the icon to preview the print page button. And I used to be able to drag the bar too. Far as Tabs to cut the task bar clutter? MY choice. I don't like the CLUTTER of tabs taking more page space from the top. If I tire of "too many" on the task bar, I can close pages. The tab area stays and room is always taken. This is why I turned off the tabs feature.

Perplexed by IE7's Navigation Controls

In reply to: What do you like/dislike about Internet Explorer 7? by John.Wilkinson 

Can someone explain the rhyme or reason for separating the Back and Forward buttons from the Refresh and Stop navigation buttons in IE7?

I had been using the most recent IE7 public beta version for several months. When the final version was finally released, I thought this layout issue might be remedied. I was wrong, obviously.

Sorry for my sarcasm, but this is like having the gear selector for forward and reverse on a driver’s left side somewhere with ANOTHER control for other gears way over on the right. Netscape, Firefox, and Opera have all the navigation controls in the same place. So why does Microsoft think that separating these navigation buttons is helpful? Anyone know?
