Mandy, IE7 is absolutely no different than IE6. It just has some nice new features that's all, like RSS feeds, tabbed browsing, etc. Browsing with IE7 is exactly the same, if not better, than IE6. Hope that helps.

Hi Chris and Peter, thanks because I'm a bit dim about these things, my husband uses Firefox on his laptop but I think from what you've both said I'll try IE7 first, is it very different to IE6?

This means you don't have to have several browser windows open, crowding your desktop, to view multiple web pages; you can now view them in multiple tabs in a single browser window. IE7 also has this facility. Now I'm using Vista and JAWS 9, I'm finding IE7 to be very good, and, as a result, I'm no longer using Firefox as my browser of choice, but I can remember the above Firefox feature that's in IE7. My advice would be to try both and take your pick. Hope that helps, and good luck.
