    MSIE7 beta2: Thanks, but no thanks, Bill

    Just wandered over to see what they're doin' in the Firefox catch up stakes. The blarney tries to be convincing but that ole Microsoft Magic is still there. I read up the notes before considering giving it a download for evaluation and before I got out of the first paragraph I came across Mr. Gates' favorite word: reboot. Huh! FF installs without a reboot, true updates require the browser to be closed and reloaded but that's a no-brainer.

    Then there's the "known phishing sites" thing ... how much of our PCs' time is gonna be involved in being spoonfed guff ...? I just bet that every time the list of known sites is revised, you have to take your computer apart, hit every component with a Spongebob Squarepants toy three times while a sliver-lined cloud passes over a new moon before rebooting your PC.

    Thanks, Bill. But no thanks. :cool:
