Look kid it's a unique ID. Wasting space on the forums isn't going to get you one. Furthermore you have to be an adult and sign an NDA. In other words, minors can't test.

IE7 Beta 1 will only be available to MSDN subs and a few beta testers.

You may want to comment on their decision about this, best place to do it.

It is ironic that what you said was repeated on the previous page as well.

So you are pretty much doing the thing that you are accusing him of

Anyone know what is the recommended partition size that should be created for Beta 1?

[saxondale.]

I was told at least 10GB

[paulius]

I'd recommend to keep it cool and simple.

5 to 10GB should really be enough and you can even install another operating system on your other partition.

You may also add yourself to the unofficial IE7 list on Channel 9 (found under wikis)

That does not guarantee anything but, I mean, it is an MS site. Just makes you feel better.

Well, it's still pending for some of us (me, for example), but I'm sure it'll change soon enough.

[cferra]

Installing that now... Here's a screeny of the install.

10GB?Dude, isn't that a lot in your opinion

Btw, will this beta 1 version might be enabled with DRM to have more eye candy? And will there be any DRM updates on this forum to help Vista look better?

[mikebeech]

Hey, anyone here downloaded it yet? or installing it at least? just curious :p

[mikebeech]

looks like my question was answered lol :p

[dreamon]

Anyone getting the error "Invalid transfer request" from the MFT program? I was able to download IE 7 beta, but if I try any build of longhorn I get that error....

[wa22guy]

I have MSDN but I don't see an IE7 Beta download anywhere. I only have the Windows Vista Beta 1 download.

Looks like the x64 IE7 is missing... does any1 see it (who's Active) saw a screenshot

[daimon]

Btw it looks like some *illegal* p2p services seem to have the iso, but i think it is a far shot.

Not really worth trying

edit: i personally gone to the trouble of checking those out :). they cannot be the thing because the biggest file I came across was 700mb.

Can you really shrink a 2.3gb thing into 730mbs?

I dont think so
