Didn't know where else to put his Soooo! The ful blown version if IE7 is out, and if you're adding ti to XP in place of IE6 I wanted to let everone know that when you go to the Web Site: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/default.mspx

Avast will trigger a virus alert! See attached. Ignore it, I've already sent an email to Avast regarding it.

I don't know if this flaw affects IE7 in Vista as well as XP , however read the article. Link:http://www.pcworld.com/article/12756...l?tk=nl_dnxnws

hehe, maybe IE7's website does have a communicable virus. But, actually, going to the site using Firefox didn't trigger avast! for me. If it does so for many, then maybe its just turn about is fair play. Windows OneCall warned me that I should uninstall avast! since it conflicts with OneCall (which is could not do because I have turned everything on OneCall off except its firewall).

No such luck, since all the MS basher would have something real to complain about, probably just heuristic, since it's set high in Avast. Does the same thing to some email I get from the psychiatric society I belong to. Of course with the latter it figures.
