apparently there's an email circulating, claiming to be from support@microsoft.com, that asks you to visit a website and download Internet Explorer 7 RC1.

if any of you get this email, DO NOT visit the site. It is full of trojans that exploit your web browser vulnerabilities.

one IE7 site that is safe to visit is: http://www.ie7.com/

so do I. From my experience, most of the IE users are the people who don't know how to change, and they are usually the ones who will fall for the email.

have you looked at http://www.ie7.com? A nice touch from a Firefox fan

As far as I know, IE7 is going to be released in Windows Update as a "High-priority upgrade."

That is, if Evil Avatar is to be believed (http://www.evilavatar.com)

i got firefox too

Does everything on CC look alright with IE7?

Yep.

looks great.....as usual

I take it that there aren't any scripts for IE7 to enhance your CC experience though.

if you want a superior web browser, I'd strongly recommend Firefox. You can install the Greasemonkey add-on that allows you to have extra (really useful) stats showing in your CC game screen.
