There are so many people asking should you get ie7 around that I thought I would cover a few points. Firstly, I have the ie7 download on one of my pc's. I decided to keep ie6 on my laptop until I had ironed out any ie7 problems. Boy am I glad I kept the old version!
When I downloaded ie7, almost immediately I began to have problems. Since the ie7 download, my computer has refused to boot up several times. This can be a pain if you are ready to start work.
Then yesterday, I got an email from my friend Eric, in which he told me as soon as he installed ie7 as part of his windows updates (you get a prompt), his ie browser would no longer launch. In fact, any time ie7 was launched his computer froze.
Eric launched his alternative browser and searched for reviews of ie7 problems. He uncovered thousands of people who had posted the same problem this week. That means the ie7 problems are most likely affecting millions of people.
In this case Eric simply did a system restore and everything is fine again. We'll be talking about system restore a little tomorrow.
If you are thinking of getting ie7, my advice is you should hold off a month or two until all the ie7 problems have been ironed out.
