    cool installing it now :D
    I use Opera mostly though
    I dont get it why microsoft doesnt make a email program within internet exployer so it automaticly checks youre email when browsing opera has it :)
    Or like opera multiple sites in 1 window(is in win xp kinda solved though but opera is still better i think)

    If microsoft integrated email with its browser it would just make it much more slower.

    IE cant cope with any additional features until they change their engine and make it flying like Opera :p

    Don't worry, hopefully fairly shortly MS Slideshow will be fairly close to what your hoping for. You'll have a little sidebar on your screen which provides info on your latest hotmail and outlook messages, latest MSNBC headlines, stock quotes, weather and appointments.

    If you'd rather not wait I'm sure you can easily find the beta of it whether through #winbeta on irc.winbeta.org or through a p2p program just search for winbeta.

    I'm using Netscape 7 right now and it's actually very nice. I really like the tabbed browsing that it has and it's speed. I'll probably do an article on it or something...I may have to do a brower round up here or something in the future. As it is, NS has really come a long way.

    sounds good, but its not just about having another add-on toolbar at the side, the whole core engine should be fast to drive the whole thing quicker, like netscape is. Netscape is faster than IE.

    Opera and netscape probably have half the amount of code in IE and its fast...I think netscape and opera employ good programmers to achieve these results.

    MS used to have this Office toolbar, it was a drag, so we took it off and it runs faster.
