But if you want to really stay out of trouble when you install it..I suggest you read Sandi's blog here..

| reply to SoulSeekerUS said by SoulSeekerUS :said by bobny1 :M$ is to greedy and stupid!. How can they pretend to win the Browser war when they are the only ones imposing the stupid Windows Validation Crap. There are millions of illegal copies running around, weather by choice, preloaded OS or M$ validation issues that are not going to be able to upgrade or won't bother to upgrade. Must people will ether switch to another browser,keep what they have or wait for Vista. Why would a stupid browser need validation? I'll stick with firefox.

One question. What about cookie handling in IE7. Is it the same as in IE6? First Party Cookies - Accept/Block/Prompt Third Party Cookies - Accept/Block/Prompt Session Cookies - Checkbox for "Always allow session cookies"
Just wanted to ensure my cookie app CookiePal isn't going to be rendered unusable.

join:2002-10-28 Port Saint Lucie, FL | reply to BlitzenZeus True. But I guess what I'm asking is if I don't update to IE7(I only use Outlook, no messenger), will I be leaving myself open? Basically if I can pass on the update and still be secure. |

It is best to keep IE updated also for the fact many programs like messenger programs use IE's .dll files. |

2 edits | reply to retiredat44 just got tired of digging through posts of people complaining about not being to install MSIE 7 because of validation,, if somone has a pirated copy, it won't validate.... but why pollute this thread??,, make a 'I have a bogus copy so it won't validate, so I can't install MSIE7'....
I didn't call anyone personally a pirate, but those who protest too much sure makes me wonder.. but, they sure made a mess of this thread..
I just say go make a thread for crying..  -- My Sig for Adelpha ISP Forum: [BQUOTE= 'insert name', OH MY GOD, Am I going to have to start drawing you a picture to get you off my freaking back?.........

1 edit | reply to rgillis70 I know that but I was talking more towards internet use.
I also agree with dTerminehtor, no one has said anything about piracy here so where I you getting it at?
La Luna, I would say you need to relax. No one wants to hear your fanboy crap here. Fact is Microsoft is greedy, always has been. I don't use IE because of that fact. |

1 edit | reply to daT Because WGA validation is not the problem....WGA NOTIFICATION is the "crap". Two different things. Hence, when someone complains that MS wants to validate their copy of XP before allowing IE7 to install, that is suspect.
And please take note of just who brought this topic up.  |

| reply to bobny1 said by bobny1 :Well!. They hope that people are gonna buy an XP licence just to be able to upgrade to IE-7...Pathetic Greed! Is this a joke? People using cracked copies of XP complaining that MS is greedy because they want them to buy an XP license to install IE7? They are the reason MS needs to validate to begin with, LOL!!!
In the meantime, your friend up there seems to think that "a stupid browser needs[s] validation". Too bad he has no clue about what he's talking about.
