IE 7 is BAD, BAD news for us......and we are staying away...
Well..... several (four to be exact) attempted IE7 installs have been made within our organization, and it wasn't pretty at all. Four different XP systems were trashed and had to be re-imaged. In other words, a 100% FAILURE RATE.

I suppose that is only four out of hundreds of computers at our facility, but we are not going to use it until we find out a LOT more about it. Something is seriously wrong there.

As it stands right now, IE7 downloads are being blocked. That is just plain pathetic but there is no other choice. So Microsoft..... here's a BIG red light for you. Please stay away.
