Has everyone with Windows upgraded to Explorer 7 yet? You like?

I'm still with 6, but am thinking I really should just go ahead and jump in again. I had upgraded when it first came out, and had problems on my laptop, so I switched both desktop and laptop back until I figured out it was a different program causing the problem. Then I just never re-upped.

How are you liking it now, with a few months of use behind you? If you've upgraded, that is.

1. I upgraded alright but I don't use it.

I'm on Firefox instead when at home. Tends to work better, and I only break out the IE for sites that demand that I use it (usually some flash type of game).

2. don't bother

firefox is better, and besides, upgrading to IE7 just means you get bugged by a lot of windows updates

3. I can't

do firefox because husband uses this pc for himself when he's doing dj stuff and etc.; and he does not want me to switch.
I am stuck with Windows for awhile.

6. That sounds like grounds for a divorce to me...

5. Talking about 7 or 7+?

7 is just the XP upgrade. 7+ comes with Vista with some added search functions.

8. No can do

My only Windows machine is the one that my employer has provided for me, and our major sales application has some issues with IE7.

9. Nope,

I made sure that when they put the new computers in at work that they used firefox.

Upgrading IE wouldn't make much sense if nobody here uses it.
