IE7, and browsers in general
Ok, I'm never one to side with Microsoft, but I have to say that many of the complaints about IE7 so far, or even IE6 in the past seem to be many users having issues that aren't the browsers fault but because that's the GUI end of things they blame what they see.
Sounds like many of you have spyware on your machines or other unpleasantantries.

Also, if you have a good Firewall, Anti-virus, Anti-spyware, (and the settings are correct for all three)then you shouldn't really have many problems in any web browser.
IE and Firefox are the two biggest targets, so of course they are going to have problems, sometimes ones they bring upon themselves, and sometimes ones that are totally unforeseen as some hacker figures out a way to exploit something they didn't even think about. Either way, both IE and FF don't always patch fast enough, (although FF can be better about that).

If you don't want to worry about all this IE and FF junk, use Opera 9 instead, it's a much better web browser than either of them.

Opera 9 rules.
