Another Problem!!!

When you click the close button (top right), All the windows will close WITHOUT Warning, this is seriously gonna be a problem for people click it on accident, forgetting another they are looking/posting something IMPORTANT, A LOT of time spent over it.

Microsoft need to make sure when people click on that close button, confirm with users that users would like to close down all tabs.

Anyone requesting links to download or sharing links for download will have their posts removed and their warning levels raised. This is not a public beta, so only authorized testers may legally download this.

I heard that IE7 beta is out

Also, Did Microsoft SAY if Non-beta testers finds this, that it's considered Illegal Download?

I wouldn't imagine that it's illegal, perhaps unsafe for Novice users.

I don't even understand how it can be considered Illegal, considering IE is ALWAYS been FREE.

It's like Star Wars Trailer Delimma, Lucasfilm wants to ban everyone who isn't a Hyperspace member to get a hold of their trailer! It's BS!!!

While I think it's great many of you are throwing around bugs you have encountered in this thread, I hope you guys are actually reporting 'em to Microsoft ;)

well technically, it's not being given to all users, since now they have implemented WGA.

I don't think bill gates really cares if vista is leaked. It creates more hype about their product than any news show/website could ever do

586287404[/snapback]

Well I think everybody got passed the WGA. So - so much for that. :ninja:

Oh I think Vista is a Completely different story, it cost something as a Final product.

IE, however, is totally Free so a Beta should be Legal, IMHO!!!

Same as any other Free MS products - MSN, etc.

That means something totally differnt, it's copyright.

That means no other company can distribute IE and seek credit/money for it.

But if a Microsoft fan download it and then shares it without temping, why NOT ok?

    • [Official] Doctor Who Thread

      Everything I have read is that the BBC is still Pro Doctor Who but wants a solid plan before they let anyone else try to do it. Which is fair.
    • EU Commission explains why Siri AI isn't launching in the EU, and Apple is to blame

      By +Good Bot, Bad Bot · Posted

      I totally agree no one should trust governments AND big tech companies that have near monopolies in certain market segments. The difference is of course citizens at least have some say in government. Yes, requiring Apple to open up Sirsi to other AI backends is in the interest of EU customers and certainly "opens" up the platform a crack. What are you saying? I wish the US would regulate tech companies more here and even break them up in some cases. Granted trusting the government to do it right is a crap shot at best but what is the alternative? To allow a few tech companies to continue to run everything and just print money? It's crazy to me for example that in most of the world 99% of communications go thru Facebook servers via WhatsApp. What kind of dystopian world are we living in?
    • Should Microsoft be forced to stop promoting Edge over other browsers?

      By _neutrino · Posted

      You can.. make sure you have ADB tools on whatever OS you are running, plug your phone into your PC give it approval to talk to the phone then run this command. adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.chrome So long as you leave Android Webview untouched it wont break anything on your Phone to do this. I have been using exclusively Firefox mobile since it was released.
    • Popular Windows 11 file manager Files gets improved tags, layouts, and new OneDrive icon

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      If it ain't broke, don't fix it. One Commander Free also available in the Store has been my goto Files Manager for years. It does what I need at a more than reasonable speed. I do occasionally use Files Explorer just because it is there and does what I need without any problems when I use it.
    • Microsoft is bringing big performance improvements to OneDrive on Mac

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I think you missed his point. He wasn't saying that cloud storage isn't possible on GNU/Linux, clearly it is. He was pointing out that you are commenting about your dislike of Windows on an article about OneDrive (not Windows) for Mac (also not Windows). Its about as off topic as coming to an article about Sony improving something on the PlayStation and saying that you hate Sony TVs and prefer LG.
