Ok last time I downloaded and installed Internet Explorer 7 I began getting

error mesage after error message. Unfortunately after uninstalling it I had

to to a restore to factory settings on my pc. Now that I have my Norton

Internet Security back up to date I am doing windows updates. It is telling

me to download Internet Explorer 7 again. I want to make sure that there is

nothing wrong with it before doing so cause God knows I don't want to have to

go through all of this again. I have Windows XP. Someone please help and

thank you in advance.

There's been "nothing wrong" with IE7 since it was released late last year.

[Now, NIS is another story.]

 

Required reading IMHO before installing IE7:

 

Sandi's Installation Tips <= FOLLOW THESE TIPS TO THE LETTER!

http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html#pre-install

 

=> You want to disable NAV and all Norton Add-ons /before/ installing IE7!

<=

 

[And I strongly recommend using

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/ie/getitnow.mspx as the

installation source, not Automatic/Windows Update.]
