Microsoft is also touting the purported enhanced security of IE7, which was a much discussed deficiency in its predecessor "We listened carefully to our customers and are delivering a safer browser that makes the tasks they do every day much easier," said Dean Hachamovitch, general manager of the Internet Explorer team at Microsoft. Like Firefox 2.0, which has not yet reached final release stage, IE7 includes anti-phishing functions that warn visitors before they visit a suspicious website. A handy feature in IE7 that's not present in Firefox is the ability to print a whole web page in portrait or landscape format, automatically resizing the text to fit.{moscomment} |
