    Like I said, they have also improved performance of the browser itself and even pages seem to load a lot faster for me now, same with scripts like the editor in vB.

    Plus lots more.

    The webslices is the onlyone that took my attension the rest are items i woudn't use.. the smart address bar is something else i noticed and i actually found annoying - i don't want any part of my url dimmed!

    but of course favourites on navigation bar, tabs, are just the most annoying copys from firefox . my girlfriend seems pretty happy that when she was down a week ago i installed the beta 1 on hers she seems pretty impressed by it.. but i'm just not an IE person

    just really annoyed that the uninstall was under "updates" on vista..

    "Self-Extracting Cabinet has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience"

    It wouldn't let me open it straight from the site because it was blocked by Windows for some reason, so I download it to desktop and that's what happens when I try to run it.

    Web slices would be pretty good if IPB and vB made there forums work with it, but at first there isn't going to be much to do with it I surpose
