Flippant Remarks about Internet Explorer 7

One very subtle difference between IE7 and Firefox 1 and above is that Firefox multithreads perceptively. This means that while IE7 is loading a web site you can’t type into the search bar at the same time. What a reporter will likely write is that Firefox is “faster” than IE7. The feeling here is that IE7 “slows down” because it is ‘obsessed’ with security issues.

The RSS Team at Microsoft writes “Saving and loading feed lists in IE7 using OPML.” Cool. But I assume that you can’t load remote OPML files because of security fears.

And last, but not least, the adultswim.com “Fix” does not work in IE7 as of this writing. I suppose I should contact adultswim.com and tell them this but for some reason this has not happened yet.
