Attention IE7 Beta users! First of all, why are you using IE? Switch to FireFox!. If you still just want the news on IE7 Beta, here 'tis.
Only two days after the release of IE7 Beta, someone found a secuity vaulnerabilty. "A denial of service bug in IE 7 beta 2 creates a means for a hacker to crash the software and potentially execute arbitrary malware on PCs running the code, according to security researcher Tom Ferris." ŠThe Register
Microsoft quickly released a blog post saying this caused IE to crash, but didn't allow arbitrary malware to be put on users machines. Maybe they're right, but I wouldn't take that chance. If you really want to stick with IE, I strongly recommend downloading the newest version of IE7 Beta here

See, firefox is generally okay when it comes to usability. But aesthetically, i don't like it so much.

No nothing fancy involved with using Firefox, just point and click stuff. And I highly recommend it, if you didn't get it yet *l*.
Thanks!

Hey! I already got Firefox, i just prefer Opera, because Opera looks a lot prettier to me.
Even if it does freeze up frequently
