The ‘I hate IE 7’ club has a lot of members
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Since I get a lot of e-mail from readers I get a pretty good notion of how a new program is being received.
I hear nothing but dispair when it comes to Internet Explorer 7. Readers hate the way the menu has been partially hidden (you can change that, or you can simply hold down the ALT key to make it temporarily visible).
But the real problem for some of you is the fact that your computer just doesn’t work when IE 7 is installed. The good news is that removing IE 7 is easy. And once you do, you’ll still have the old version of Internet Explorer - after all, it’s built into the operating system. So once IE 7 is gone, you can go right back - with no fuss - to your old buddy.
Here’s a link that takes your through the process of removing IE 7.
There are some things I like about IE 7 - including the (slightly) better security and the use of more readable type. However, you can get the same sort of improvements with Firefox without the hassles of IE 7. So some of you might decide to remove IE 7 and move over to Firefox - you can download that browser here.
After all, not all changes have to be painful.
