Let me know what you think of it.

Been using it for a couple of weeks and quite like it. With regard to mail as I use gmail there is no problem as I have installed the latest Google Toolbar beta and it has a gmail icon on it (which can be set up to check mail automatically).

I find it easier to manage Favourites than in Firefox, and have set up the Search window up the top to use Wikipedia as I have Google on the Toolbar.

I like the ability to tile tabs as well - a nice little feature

460636 2006-06-05 10:43:00 I just downloaded it this weekend .

I like most of the new features now that I am getting to know where to find them - along with the old features of IE6 :D .

Pleasantly surprised that the install picked up my default search engine (Google) and didn't try to foist MSN Search on me . . .

However it has locked up on me a a few times today - which was the original reason I downloaded IE7: IE6 was doing the same . Now I'm beginning to think that M$ doesn't want to play nice with the Google toolbar ("googletoolbar2 . dll") . Seems to mainly occur when I have a number of tabs open . . . I might try turning the toolbar off for a couple of days to see if it makes a difference .
