How is a developer that does not run Windows XP home or Pro supposed to test
for IE7 compatibility?

Is it time to install IE 7 over IE 6? Is it ready for public use?

Is there anyway to remove the search box from IE 7?  I would like to extend
the address bar the full length of the screen as I had it in IE6.
I frequently start typing a website and the auto-complete box underneath
would list out various web pages on the website, and I could just ...

Group,
Attempting to download IE7 is proving to be impossible so far.
Using ie6 as browser from this page:

I would like to know how to change the settings in internet options under
the program tab. I have dreamweaver that I would like to add to the option
drop down list to pick from. Now I only have notepad and excel to chose
from. Please help me.

It's almost empty, but when i copy that folder on some other location
suddenly all those other files become visible?

Unless I'm mistaken, from IE7 Beta 2 Preview to IE7 Final, there has
been a change to the way the browser opens after using the "Open these
[tabs] the next time I use Internet Explorer" option on shut-down.
With IE7 Final:

sites anymore. My network connections works fine, both e-mail and other
browsers such as Opera and Mozilla.
I've tried all the fixes presented at this page:

When I click on a link in my email program a new window opens up IE7. I
already have IE7 open and I want links from my email to open a new tab NOT a

I have selected in the Tab settings section 'Open links from other programs

First, let me say that I have always been a fan of IE and have used it since
IE4.  I had one of the IE7 betas installed and did NOT see these issues.

When I go to the download site for IE7,  Avast! AntiVirus program

ok - I give up -way too many problems with this - when I open a new window -
the top part of the window is unaccessible - the only way I can close the
window (since nothing is available to me) is to go to task manager and hit
end task ... how do I safely get rid of this version ...

I keep multiple tabs open and want the same tabs to open when IE7 is first
started.  Each time I close IE7, I have to check the box that asks me if I
want to open these tabs the next time I open IE7.  Is there any way to have
this permanently checked?
