Internet Explorer NeoSmart has a review of the just released Internet Explorer 7 and screenshots to match. The review focuses on the user interface, security, and compatibility of Internet Explorer 7 compared to IE6, Opera, and Firefox. They conclude: "The world of online browsing has finally reached a point where, by-and-large, it doesn't matter what browser a user chooses or how they decide to browse the web, for the most part pages will display the way they should, the users will be secure, and malware needs to find a new venue. This latest build of Internet Explorer 7 only strengthened our opinion."

>> As for Explorer, it never had anything similar.

BULL. Apparantly, you've never heard of ActiveX... or things based on it like Google toolbar, Trixie, Favorez, Pluck...

Oh, and it's worth noting that in IE, they don't call it plug-ins or extensions, they call them add-ons, and on that platform they ARE ALL much the same thing since they are ALL implemented via ActiveX.

Tools > Internet Options > Programs > Manage Add-ons

Golf Alpha Charlie, over?

Exactly.
There is too much hate going MS' way (mostly their fault - but still....), and it's all FUD.

IE is customizable, skinable, extensionable, plugin-able, and more - from the very beginning.

It's a tad harder to do - but in the end you can do more, since it's not all JavaScipt.
