Just discovered last night what "compatibility issues meant." IE7 doesn't like my Invision Bulletin Board. OY! and so I have to figure out how I can make changes or revert back to IE6, which means the DH will be doing a massive revamp of my hard drive. Grrrrr. Monica Warning Will Robinson, Warning!

Thank you for such a detailed post. I downloaded IE 7 last night, then instantly regretted it because it was so different. Your post gave me reasons to love it. Although I didn't see in your post where I can customize the location of the URL-Refresh/Stop buttons or toolbars. I've tried moving them (yes lock toolbars is off), but I've not been successful in putting the toolbars in the top to bottom order that I like. And now I have to get used to going to the right side of the screen, not the left to hit stop or refresh. GRRRR But I love the way they've changed the Add Fav links, although I wish I could get rid of the stupid Icons on my row of links I use constantly. Love the RSS feeds piece too. I suppose FeedBlitz will go the way of the wind with IE7's ability for instant update. GREAT, GREAT info!! Big Hugs for doing research I don't have to since I'm on deadline. (Day job at least lets me play on blogs! LOL) Monica Jane, You are a GODDESS! Thank you for such a detailed post.
