IE7pro : IE7 Comes Closer To Firefox

Wouldn’t it be nice if IE7 provided more control over how you want to use your tabs, had an ad filter like AdBlock Plus for Firefox, allowed crash recovery, move the IE menu bar above the address bar, may be even allow mouse gestures for navigation, and how about “find as you type” (nice to have).

Well, that is not a lot to ask and guess what, you can have all that now and much more (capture a webpage as an image, view page info, save flash/video, custom User Agent, “Open in New Tab” in context menu when Drag & Drop URL; new Tab from search bar etc.) with this free tool called IE7Pro.

IE7pro is an add-on for Internet Explorer 7 which adds lots of features and extras that make your IE easier, more useful, more secure and more customizable.

This tool brings Internet Explorer experience to a much higher level and much closer to Firefox 2.0 but I wish they could integrate few more must have tools - spell checker, session restore, a better RSS reader - in this bundle. You can request features here.

It is a very handy tool to have and I sincerely hope they keep working and providing more features in time. Security in IE is something which Microsoft is really committed to and I think they are on the right path. Read security comparison of IE7 and Firefox here.

      Harvey: Personally I favor Firefox but I would like the browser war to be competitive. You can find instructions on how to uninstall IE7 here :http://articles.techrepublic.com.com/5100-10877-6136194.html
