New Web Browser Releases

[frantik2k3]

I have installed IE 7 on my work computer and thus far I am very disappointed with it. The new user interface is nothing more than uncustomizable crap.

The Microsoft IE development team spent so much time on "perfecting" the safety aspects, that they must ahve spent 37 minutes on the user interface.

The "Forward," "Back," "Home," "Refresh," "Stop" buttons are all over the place, not in a single area like with IE6 and FireFox. The main

Here is the new IE7 user interface...


And of course the old IE6/FF user interface...


IE7 merely gives the illusion of a customizable UI. In fact, the only part you can easily customize is the Command Bar (the one containing the home button). As a special treat, you can also decide how much of the window tab space you want the Command Bar to use by dragging the slider left or right! But wait, it doesn’t stop there... You can also have the Menu bar above the Link bar OR the Link bar above the Menu bar. Oh, so many choices!

Simply put, my experience with IE7 =

Microsoft could not make it any easier for FireFox to become the #1 browser out there.

Has anyone figured out a way to disable that damn annoying autocomplete feature in FireFox 2.0?. You know, where if you type something into the searchbar etc, all previous searches appear in the dropdown box?. Unchecking everything in the history/privacy settings does nothing, it's pissing me off.

How did you get it to work?. I can get it to work if I click on "clear private data" each and everytime I type something into the searchbar but other than that nothing. Apparently i'm not alone either as after doing some searching, there's a number of people who dont like having a "dropdown box" each time you type in a URL but I cant find anything to disable it permantly like you can in IE. I'll keep on trying I guess, otherwise it's back to IE
