Want to know the scariest thing I read all week?

"Microsoft to Release Internet Explorer 7.0

    Microsoft Corporation will release a new version of Internet Explorer, the
world's most popular Internet browsing software, with new, built-in security
features, Chairman Bill Gates said on Tuesday.

    In a speech at a major security conference here, Gates said Internet
Explorer 7.0, with new anti-spyware features, will be released for preliminary
testing this summer.

    The move comes three years after Microsoft, the world's biggest software
company, launched a major initiative to improve the reliability and security of
its software, which runs on about 90 percent of all personal computers.

My only hope is they don't remove the ActiveX controls, or any of the bugs. I
would sincerely miss them.

And I will also be extremely angered if they include tabbed browsing. Why join
the rest of the world in a happy web surfing environment?

Stay the course Microsoft!! Don't be tricked into providing better software!

Peter
