Operating system: Windows XP Pro SP2
Browser: IE Preview 7 beta 2
I like the new browser, but ...
1) When IE7 is already open and I click a web link from another program, a
new instance of IE7 is started. This seems to defeat the purpose of tabbed
browsing. Probably a Windows issue.
2) Alta Vista is not available as a search tool.

And why are using Alta Vista? This is a sure way to get busted for being
pirate and posting in a MS newsgroup about it . . . .

I think you're confusing Alta Vista with something else. Alta Vista is one
of the oldest search engines on the net. I believe it was first hosted by
Dell Computers.

Oops, not Dell but DEC - Digital Equipment Corp.

Astalavista is the crackz/serialz/etc.. site, while AltaVista is a perfectly
respectful search engine like Google and Yahoo.
