New Internet Explorer Browser – Version 7

Filed under: Archived,Computing Tips - Nov 15 2006

In the next few weeks Microsoft will be offering a free update to the Internet Explorer browser via the Windows Automatic Updates service. If you don’t want to wait for the automatic update, you can find out more information about it and download it for free from Microsoft’s website, or manually check for the for the update at www.windowsupdate.com.

IE7 offers a few new features such as tabbed browser windows, the ability to zoom-in to increase page size and fit-to-page printing.Tabbed browser windows let you have multiple web pages open and you can easily switch between the tabs. I find it useful to have web mail open in one window tab, news open in another and real-time stock market graphs in yet another.
