IE7 full release
Due to hit the IE site tonight but there are some other sources out there: Softpedia
Quote:
Hi Folks,
The final release of Internet Explorer 7 should be available today and will be delivered to customers via Automatic Updates starting November 1st. Prior to deployment of IE 7, we strongly recommend that you test your Web sites, extensions, and applications to make sure they are ready. Microsoft recommends that Web sites and applications are ready for the release of Internet Explorer 7 this month.
Internet Explorer 7 is highly compatible with the Web sites, extensions, and applications out there today and we have made significant improvements in security, rendering, and usability. However, some of these improvements and new features may cause some sites to not render properly or change how the user interacts with your site, extension or application.
Help ensure your Web sites, extensions, and applications are compatible with Internet Explorer 7 by testing Internet Explorer 7 and utilizing the following resources and tools to help you identify and resolve any compatibility issues:
Install the latest build of Internet Explorer 7
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie
Prepare your organization using the Internet Explorer 7 Readiness Toolkit
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=64421
Ensure browser-based applications are compatible by using Application Compatibility Toolkit 5.0
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/win...pat/tools.mspx
Prepare for Internet Explorer 7 to be delivered via Automatic Updates and Windows Update
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/upd...ouncement.mspx
If needed, install the Internet Explorer 7 Blocker Toolkit to block automatic delivery
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=65788
Use the following additional resources to investigate and resolve compatibility issues:
Visit MSDN (msdn.microsoft.com/ie) for supporting information
Visit the IE team blog (http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/) to research, make inquiries, and provide feedback
Microsoft recommends that enterprises are prepared for automatic delivery by November 1st

Re: IE7 full release
hmmmm, takes a little getting used to. I suppose the font needs to grow on you. And why have 'refresh' and 'stop' moved away from 'back' and forward' Surely, it makes sense to have all navigation buttons in one place?

To give companies a chance to test their website (and other products) with the final release of IE7.

Re: IE7 full release
Those of you that are using IE7 can you tell me what the pros and cons are of changing from IE6 ?
