I don't understand how changing to IE7 will help the security of my laptop if it is not open. Can you explain please? Clare Balme
Even if you don't use Internet Explorer, the component parts can still be used by other programs. Firefox does this to display sites in IE inside Firefox tabs, if you use the IE Tab extension. IE7 is more secure by design than IE6, especially in Vista. Also, there are now many more IE7 users than IE6 users, so any site that still doesn't work properly with IE7 is heading for trouble.
