I tried IE7 but realized that I got an error when tried to open my contact conversation history log so I had to uninstall. Thought is was great otherwise.

You know IE beta 7 is still a bit off FF in terms of looks and customisations

You can add themes, extentions and scripts (with the help of greesemonkey)

As i see it, its a lot better than IE :P

you could have fix that by changin the path where the chat logs were stored, to a path with no spacces in it.

No browser is "better" in the end it is down to personal experience :P

Microsoft will force it to be a big hit. Alot of Microsoft's programs require IE to work e.g MSN Messenger :P

That's already the case now and yet IE is losing grounds. The new IE won't make any difference unless they can provide new things that FF doesn't have. Making people install the new IE just because of those programs isn't a reason why it will be a big hit.
Personally I dislike IE7 Beta when it comes to the GUI. I just think that GUI belongs in Win XP.

I re-installed IE7 but I am still experiencing the below blunder even though I tried correcting it by going to Tools, Options, Messages then Message History Change. Where did I go wrong? Thanx

The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.

If the path to the chatlogs is C:/Documents and Settings/Carl/My Docum...
then there are still spaces in it otherwise it would say: C:/DocumentsAndSettings/Carl/MyDocuments....

Make a subfolder in the root to save chatlogs f.e. C:/Chatlogs

;)
