Internet Explorer safe at last

Yes, even connected to a network. IE7 (beta 1) can be started with the -extoff switch to open with no add-ons or activex. Now if only that was the default..

Here's a screen shot - note the dark grey square new tab button in the middle. The button between the location and search bars goes one step further than Safari's equivalent - it trebles up as Go, Stop and Refresh.

Each tab gets it's own menu and toolbar set, I'd be surprised if that was in the final release, unless you could make customised settings the default for each tab (maybe you can, I didn't try)

I was checking to see if it still messed up the borders on a site and yes it still does, but this list makes me think it's probably fixed by now.
