Hi ,Yes its me again !

       Well after the download completed ,I recieved an error message that the download had failed error 0x11 ? It said to try download again ,since I was downloading in the back ground while surfing the net ,perhaps I will try downloading when Iam not on my PC so that the PC is only doing one thing ! Anyone with a simular exprience please reply ,and again is this a download I should wait B/4 downloading make sure Microsoft has all the bugs out ?

                                  Thanks Nick

Its probably busier than all heck right now.

Uninstalling the beta version is not necessary. From MS support for IE7: "* Pre-release versions of Internet Explorer 7 will automatically uninstall as part of the final release installation process." http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/support/default.mspx

I am reading your entries with interest. I also got that e-mail from MS and did download the beta 3 version. It looked ok and at first I really like it but after a short while I started getting all sorts of error mesages. It wouldn't allow me to even post a message here or get on a chat. I uninstalled and needed to do a restore before I could use my old trusty ie6. But I really liked ie7 but do not want to install until I can be surer that the bugs are gone. I guess I was hoping that Dell would e-mail us or something and say it was SAFE to download the finished version.

There is a tool to block the install from Auto update for this program.
