Not a good idea to use such volunteered links for downloads. Without regard
to that issue, I'd like to comment as follows --
I found that my HP printer programs wouldn't work with IE7 installed. And
my favorite Google News gave me repeated lockups. Probably other programs
too but I gave less notice to others. HP issued a fix after a couple of
weeks.
It appears that there are a number of programs out there that have
incompatibilities with IE7 which presumably will be fixed after the
complaints roll in. Best to hold off on EI7 for a couple of months. EI7
looks a little better than EI6, but not enough to endure the present
hassles.
