The layout and font is different but I like it. It reminds me of firefox a little.

The only problem i see in it is that when you open a new url in aim or someplace it opens a new windows instead of tab.

Make sure you guys click tools > Internet Options > tabs_settings > always open popups in new tabs.
If the cant see the classic menu then click the tools button near the end of the tabs bar and click toolbars > classic menu

If you want to use IE7 without installing it follow these steps:

* Extract IE7B2P-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe to a any folder *i.e. c:\ie7beta2p*
* Working within the extracted directory, delete the following:
- update *the folder*
- install.ins
- spmsg.dll
- spuninst.exe
- spupdsvc.exe
* Create a blank text file within the directory and rename it to "iexplore.exe.local"
* Run iexplore.exe

Its still buggy as hell, but personally i think this is a step in the right direction for Microsoft. I love the quick tab preview. I think this may be the first time in a long time where another browser might actually copy IE for a change.

If IE7 is showing that name in pink, it is not up to web standards.

After being an Microsoft Systems Admin for a number of years now, there's one thing I've learned:
Never EVER beta-test anything for Microsoft.
I use to use FireFox but now use Safari (Mac OS X) with the PithHelmet extension loaded and it has all the capabilities of FireFox but none of the browser crashes.

It should be pink, its a glitch in other browsers where it is still yellow.
