Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 continues the Internet Explorer commitment to provide enhanced security and privacy, additional browser features, and enhanced usability for platform developers.
New Features:
Tabbed Browsing - View multiple sites in a single browser window. Easily switch from one site to another through tabs at the top of the browser frame.
Instant RSS Feeds - Read RSS feeds directly in the browser, scan for important stories, and filter your view with search terms or site-specific categories.
New Streamlined User Interface - The Internet Explorer 7 frame is reorganized to make it noticeably simpler, more streamlined, and less cluttered with unnecessary items.
Phishing Filter - Proactively warns and helps protect you against potential or known fraudulent sites and blocks the site if appropriate.
Tab Groups - Tabs can be grouped and saved into logical categories, allowing you to open multiple tabs with a single click. A Tab Group can easily be set as the Home Page Group so the entire Tab Group opens every time Internet Explorer is launched from the Start menu.
CSS Improvements - Addresses many of the major inconsistencies that can cause web developers problems when producing visually rich, interactive webpages.
Toolbar Search Box - Web searches using your favorite search provider can now be entered into a search box within the toolbar, eliminating the clutter of separate toolbars.
Favorites Center - Offers easy and fast access to Favorites, Tab Groups, Browsing History, and RSS Feed subscriptions.
Dynamic Security Protection - Enhances awareness of website security and privacy settings by displaying color-coded notifications next to the address bar.
Quick Tabs - Provides easy tab selection and navigation by displaying thumbnails of all open tabs in a single window.
