I downloaded IE7 last week and lost internet connection on both my computers (wireless networked).

After trying everything I could think of (while in a state of panic)I eventually had to resort to removing it AND doing a system restore to get back online.

I have no idea what it was in IE7 that caused the problem, but I can guarantee you I won't be downloading it again.

One of the rules I try to follow where tech is concerned is NEVER get in early. If there's going to be problems, and there will, I prefer for the real beta testing to be well and over with before I start wasting MY time trying to fix it.

I was still using win98se up until last month(still use it for a lot on the other box). I figure by now, XP should be just about as good as it's going to get.

Ahhh... I see that you've discovered one of the new security features. If you can't get out, the Russian Mob can't get in!
