Do you like Internet Explorer 7.0 ?

[AcaCandy]

Yes.

[bobkatbf]

Is there a way to disable "Close all tabs " options on IE7.0 when you have a few windows open ?

[TOGG]

No, I don't like it so I don't use it. I have Opera for everyday use and Firefox (with the IETab and NoScript) to collect Windows Updates.

Yes I do.

Mozilla: Hi! Please come over to the foxy side.
Me: I'll rather go (on a) Safari, shoo-away foxie!

[MysticEyes]

Nope. I always like to support the innovators, not the Johnny-come-lately copycats.

Not sure what you mean. Do you not want all tabs to close or do you just not want to see the warning message that all tabs will be closed?

More than IE6, less than Firefox.

[ferrija1]

Better than IE6, worse than anything else.

I want to just select which windows that I want closed - without that annoying pop-up -"Do you want to close all tabs ?"

Some statistics for you to check:

(Regarding security vulnerabilities present in the "big 4" out there in the way of webbrowsers today)

=====
SECUNIA DATA ON BROWSER SECURITY (dated 12/20/2007):
=====

Opera 9.24 security advisories @ SECUNIA (0% unpatched):

http://secunia.com/product/10615/?task=advisories

----

Netscape 9.0.0.4 (0% unpatched)

http://secunia.com/product/14690/

----

FireFox 2.0.0.11 security advisories @ SECUNIA (26% unpatched):

http://secunia.com/product/12434/

----

IE 7 (latest cumulative update from MS) security advisories @ SECUNIA (33% unpatched):

http://secunia.com/product/12366/

----

Those %'s are the latest for FireFox 2.0.0.11, Netscape 9.0.0.4, IE7 after last "patch Tuesday" from MS with the "CUMULATIVE IE UPDATES" they have, & Opera 9.24... all latest/greatest models.

So, as you can see?

Well, NOT ONLY IS OPERA MORE SECURE/BEARING LESS SECURITY VULNERABILITIES?

It's faster too, on just about ANYTHING a browser does, & is probably the MOST standards compliant browser under the sun (not counting HTML dev tools). This is borne out in these tests:

http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/browserSpeed.html

AND, yes others (most recently in Javascript parsing speeds, oddly enough, lol... given the topic of my post here that is), right here:

http://nontroppo.org/timer/kestrel_tests/

Opera's just more std.'s compliant, faster, & more secure than the others... so, "where do you want to go today?"...

ALSO - HOW TO SET THE "KILL BIT" ON ACTIVEX CONTROLS:

(I.E.-> This is how to stop an ActiveX control from running in Internet Explorer)

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/240797

In case you have "problematic" or security vulnerable ActiveX controls, per this RealPlayer example thereof:

http://service.real.com/realplayer/s...007_player/en/

APK

P.S.=> AcaCandy, specifically - for all that "Microsoft MVP" status, since it doubtless makes you one of the more technically proficient people speaking here?

Well... You like a browser that needs massive work in terms of security patching, & is slower than Opera is by a long shot in terms of performance.

Choose more wisely man, especially based on the above (IE's best in terms of INTRANET development imo, NOT on the public internet, & mainly because of ASP.NET capabilities imo @ least, & that is one of a professional developer for 15++ yrs. now, but on the PUBLIC INTERNET? Too many "holes" for my tastes @ least)... apk

Only use IE for MS updates and now Silverlight.
All the rest of my browsing is done with Firefox.

[Frank4d]

I don't like IE7 or Firefox, so I use IE6.

Tools, internet options, tabs, settings, uncheck 'warn me'

I'll take your advice for what it's worth. Free.

And I take the first part of your quote above as an insult. Seems to be your trend around here. I've already invited you to go post your nonsense elsewhere...please heed that advice.
