| Quote: | SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Microsoft Corp. <MSFT.O> will release a new version of Internet Explorer, the world's most widely used Web browsing software, with stronger, built-in security features, chairman Bill Gates said on Tuesday.
The move is the latest in Microsoft's three-year effort to beef up security to protect its software products which are the most-targeted by malicious programers. The company has made three security software-related acquisitions, with two of those coming in the past few months. |

I'm glad they are finally addressing IE's shortfalls on a genuine basis.
It'll be interesting to see how bloated the new IE 7 will be.
Too bad MS can't scale it down to the Firefox level...of course, I do know the reasons.
I still prefer IE over FF at this point. I will continue to use both until I see that I can view any site on the Internet that I might want to see with FF.
