any moron can use it safely and securely without needing to know where to upgrade and what not to use. this whole release is just an attempt by microsoft to take back that 5% demographic and crush firefox before it can actually compete.
Who cares if it is? If IE7 ends up being very secure, with tabbed browsing, pop-up blocking, activeX filtering, and an improved core-base, then who cares if you use firefox or IE7? A browser is a browser is a browser is a browser. If IE7 ends up being as secure and functional as firefox, then there is no reason to continue converting people under the basis of "it's more secure" "it has tabbed browsing" "it blocks malicious activex scripts" since IE7 could do it.

Fore firefox fanboi's, that's fine. But we can't fool ourselves into thinking MSes products are always going to be horrible just to keep that "elitism"
