The latest update to Microsoft's much-maligned Internet Explorer is getting a plug from an unlikely source.
The third beta version of IE 7 debuted last week. Updates to the software, due for final release at the end of this year, include tabbed browsing, RSS support, a search box on a more streamlined toolbar and improved security.
Critics of the browser remain legion. But one person from outside the Microsoft campus who's got some good things to say is Blake Ross, one of the original developers of Firefox, the browser that's had IE looking over its shoulder for quite a while now. In an interview with Todd Bishop of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Ross said this of the test version: "The truth is that it actually looks pretty good."
