IE7 Rumors

[ESALADUANE]

Here are some RUMORS on features that may be included in IE 7.

There will be a spell checker for forms and for people who have Office 11. There will be a thesaurus. Both will work the same way as the right click menu that already exists in MS word (red underline, etc). There will be no pop-up stopper, but there will be limits on what pop-ups can do (no full screen and multiple pop-ups, etc). There is likely to be some sort of tab UI but it is likely to be different from the ones in Mozilla and Opera.

There will be no version for Windows NT4.


IE 7 will be IE .NET and it will be the last IE !! Microsoft accepted that integrating IE into the shell was a bad idea from a security perspective so they are diversifying IE from the shell and making a new browser. MSN explorer is planned to take over when the IE line ends.

No more IE versions after 7? This is bad. Let's hope they make it the best version yet!

I say, go mozilla. The latest version, 1.3beta rocks.
