You simply need to look at the phenomenal success of Mozilla Firefox and the way they have seduced their users to better understand why Microsoft has integrated a large number of new functions with Internet Explorer 7 (navigation with tabs, anti-phishing filter, CSS2 implementation, RSS streams, better security, respect of new web standards, etc).

Microsoft has therefore started to concentrate on their “new” rival, as it was time to take a serious look at Internet Explorer 6, which has been on the market since… 2001. It was finally in 2006 that Internet Explorer 7 saw the light of day, which is only supported by Windows XP SP2 and of course Windows Vista, with an interface that has been completely remade with functionalities that finally respond to the most exigent users.
