FWIW, I hated IE7, and really don't want to try IE8.
I switched to Mozilla for 99% of web tasks, with the NoScript addin.
IE6 is still used for the times when an MS browser is required..

  I uninstalled IE8.  It took me back to IE 6 :-).  The thing I missed about

  address bar and windows explorer became internet explorer without missing a
  beat
