IE7 tabs

I would like to always have the tabs I have open in IE7 open again after IE is closed down w/o out the prompt \"Open these the next time....\".

Any ideas?

I dare to say it, but Firefox has IE Tabs spanked 7 different ways from Sunday. All you need is \"Tab Clicking Options\". \"TabBrowserPreferences\" and \"IETab\".

There you go: you can even use the despicable Trident renderer inside Firefox. :)

Is it worth mentioning the UI of IE7 is the biggest stinker of an abortion? A single-day seminar on UI design is all it would have taken to get IE looking right. But no.

Dudes, they're just frackin browsers. They render web pages. While some people may be able to finagle a career out of web pages, at the end of the day it's a silly consumer technology that doesn't matter all that much.

Oh, and happy festivus!

To bad its a buggy POS and is looking more and more like a Microsoft product each time its updated.

I agree with Mobius and TopWop.

FireFox has IE7's tabs totally spanked (IE7's tabs suck big doggy doo-doo).... and with each major update, FireFox is seeming more and more like Microsoft.

Not a single machine leaves the shop I work in without Firefox, Avast, and Spybot installed on them.



Firefox Ownz :) I've toyed with both long enough to know. I've tried a few other browsers out there and I just end up going back to Firefox.


Also, IE7 has conflicts with HP products. One lady, couldn't use her scanning software for her HP All-In-One until we rolled back her IE browser.
