Internet Explorer 7 Beta 1

Extract and "update.exe /quiet /passive"

(Update.exe is in the update folder)

Faster way to install and well.. if you want to slip it in your windows disk (god who would) it wont prompt or do any verification... just installs.

no need to extract use the installer (IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe) with /passive it will install without asking WGA

IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe /Passive

or use this batch file in the same folder as IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe

i believe the acid test will apear exactly the same in 7 as it did with 6, i cant now check cos ive uninstalled 7, bad is an understatment, was hoping it would be more compliant but it isnt. i ran many of the selector test on the w3c site and non had been added. according to the technical specification document it makes no mention of additions to html or css (just the 2 bug fixes guillotine and peekaboo)

Same problem... tried all those and it still doesn't work. For some reason WGA reckons I've been a victim of piracy... I'd say I've been a victim of an over-enthusiastic anti-piracy program!

This is how to do it:

Extract IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe with WinRAR (or anything that works) to a temporary directory. 
Open update\iecustom.dll in a hex editor. 
Navigate to hexadecimal offset 0x1034h(4148 decimal) and change 0F 95 to 0F 94. 
Save and execute update.exe. 

Enjoy.

Edit: This works perfect.

This is how IE7 renders the Acid2 test.

Before fanboy's startup, I like to point out that firefox doesn't render this correctly either (although nowhere near as bad as IE7).

You just gotta hack iecustom.dll ,

Its very easy, but about the program.

It works pretty fast and decent here.

Also the content deleting is very fast comparing to IE6 :shifty:

Can someone tell me where to get update.exe or where do I find it on my computer (/WINDOWS ?). And where do I find/get iecustom.dll ?

Thank you.
