Well, I'm glad there are many like you (and me) willing to explore new software. Personally, I like IE and looking forward to going back to IE7 as long as I stay on the Windows platform.

Firefox was a nice diversion to get tabbed browsing. Either way, my next OS is likely to be OSX now that Apple is on the leading edge X86 treadmill with Intel.

You state that "...MS's proven track record..is new security problems...ActiveX..."

I dismiss that as typical anti-MS rhetoric . I believe IE7 and Longhorn, for that matter, will be rock solid and highley secure. Unfortuneately for MS, they built so much capability and flexibility in the current and past generation of OS and browser code that has led to problems. It's like the more windows you put in your house (punn intended) the more vulnerable it is. The next generation promises to be very good and I am certain that it will be.
