    I do, as mentioned earlier in the thread.

    But getting rid of 7 put my computer back as it was meant to be, with the manufacturer's software functioning again, and the wonderful disappearance of the "WindowsFormsParkingWindow" that obstinately popped up every time I switched off.

    Everywhere you look on the net, there are people complaining about what IE7 has done to their machines. It shouldn't be allowed, innit.

    I'm certainly not a staunch supporter of MS as I've also used FF for years. I can only give my opinion based on my own experience and that is I've not seen a single problem with IE7 and it works better than IE6 ever did on my PC. No errors, hangups etc. I pay no heed to what other people are experiencing for keeping IE7, as it is by definition their problems are not universal.

    Ditto your satisfaction!
