Even ie has tabs and a google search in the top corner.

Give opera a try and give a few days to learn the mouse gestures, it's a brilliant way to browse :thumbs:
I'm not going on Hype. I used IE, Netscape, Mozilla, Opera and then Firefox. I have come to an informed decision about what I like, and I know what annoys me.

The only good bit about firefox is the easy plugins.

Opera is a proper browser.
Yes my IE does that stupid activex box now.
Its annoying.
I'll try lowering the security level, I didn't even think it would be that because mine is low already.
But Firefox never does any silly crap you don't want it to. You can use the tabbed browsing feature which is very useful, so is page search, so is the google bpx in the corner, so is........................

You have to enable a couple of run activex control bits in the security settings.
I just enabled a few and it works now.

I though it was just the new beat of ie7.


ah ok...no i don't think it's the new ie7 which i also use:lol::lol:...which is a bit of some firefox tabbed browsing:P

IE is coming up again esp with the new layout which is nice but it's still beta

as steve mentioned, maybe it has to do with security levels. I have yet to get these kind of problems though.:P

Aye after steve mentioned security settings I've turned mine down.
Not been to a site to try it yet though.
I normally have settings down low anyway but they make it more awkward every time.

It's some stupid Windows security update. Do yourself a favour and get a proper browaser:
