So I just updated to IE 7.0.something and it's quite different. Not sure if I like the new layout and whatnot.
Anywho, I noticed that since I updated, all the text seems to be a little bigger and bolder looking. Not bad since I cant see, but it seems to be fuzzy edged/blurry at the same time.
Is there anyway I can fix this, or am I stuck with it? Ive only had it installed for 15 minutes and my eyes are already going crazy from the text.

Also, is there a way I can ditch the FireFox-like tabs and get all my open pages to cascade across the toolbar, like with the older versions?

Better yet, is there a way I can just go back to the old look, but still have the benefits (whatever they may be) of the update?

Thanks

 

I didn't upgrade to IE 7 because there was a thread about some problems with it. With my luck, my computer will crash.

 

Yes. Here is a way to fix all of those issues.

Click "Start", and then click "Control Panel".
Click "Add or Remove Programs".
Check "Show Updates" at the top of the dialog box.
NOTE: If the customer is running IE7 Beta 2 Preview (March 20 or later), it is NOT necessary to check "Show Updates".
Scroll down the list and highlight the version of IE7 that you are running, and then click "Change/Remove".
The customer's computer will revert back to IE6 after rebooting.

 

I upgraded last week, worked great for about 2 days then crashed so I switched back. I loved the text in it. Mine was very sharp very clear.
When it crashed it went to super humongus sized text, even running at 1280x1024 no page fit on the screen, looked like the browser was running 400x200

 

I hated IE7... and WMP 11... downloaded Firefox 2, and all is good.

Decided to go ahead and go back to IE6 and WMP 10...

 

Back to IE 6. Much better. Thanks for the help guys and gals

 

i like IE7, it took me a few days to get used to it but its alot better than IE6. i been using it for over a month with no problems.

 

What differences are there over IE6, other than the looks?

 

i like the tabs and grouping them, drop down menu sizes, use of the scroll wheel for opening and closing tabs and the printing adjusts the pages to fit the paper better.
i am still finding new features.

overall i think its better than IE6.

 

Hold down the "ctrl" button then use the scroller on your mouse up and down to increase and decrease the fonts while looking at webpages.

 

It was on smallest..... but appeard as 600 pt

 

 

FTW

 

I upgraded to IE7 a couple weeks ago and have no problems. It's not much different to IE6 except maybe better security and a different look. But I do like the tab browseing (sp) I can load up a bunch of sites, then click on the Quick Tabs button and there they are. Easy to use and a clean look. Clear as a 1 mp camera

 

I updated to IE7 and liked the new format. The one thing that bothered me, like you said, was the font was fuzzy and blured. I'm not sure why the font appeared different than IE6, but I couldn't find a way to correct it. So, I switched to Firefox and I love it so much better.
