| | IE 7 cannot run, DoS condition When running IE 7 in Vista, it consumes 100% of system resources and never loads a page. This machine was upgraded from XP SP2 wiht IE 7 RC1 already installed. Since I use Firefox anyway it does not affect me much. -- Edward Ray CCIE Security, CISSP, GCIA Gold, GCIH Gold, MCSE+Security, PE |

| | Re: IE 7 cannot run, DoS condition Hi Edward, You should have removed IE7 beta from WinXP prior to installing Vista as an upgrade as there are a number of compatibility issues. You will need to backup data, then proceed with a format/clean install. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org "Edward Ray" <ewray@newsgroup.nospam> wrote in message news:4F36C4F4-A2E5-42D0-B72E-174BCD80A684@microsoft.com... > When running IE 7 in Vista, it consumes 100% of system resources and never > loads a page.

| | Re: IE 7 cannot run, DoS condition IE 7 was RC1, not beta, which I presumed was OK. Since this is my primary laptop I will have to wait until the mood suits me to do a fresh install At first glance I see nothing in the way of improvment security-wise on this OS. If this is the best Microsoft can do, then they deserve to lose some market share. IMHO, Vista is a dud. -- Edward Ray CCIE Security, CISSP, GCIA Gold, GCIH Gold, MCSE+Security, PE "Rick Rogers" <rick@mvps.org> wrote in message news:eV9SU5Y2GHA.1568@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > Hi Edward, > > You should have removed IE7 beta from WinXP prior to installing Vista as > an upgrade as there are a number of compatibility issues.

| | Re: IE 7 cannot run, DoS condition Hi, Yes, it was RC1 for IE7 in WinXP, not for Vista. Vista already has IE7, the stand alone is for other operating systems. Hit a known spyware site, see if the changes in the security model have any effect for you. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org "Edward Ray" <ewray@newsgroup.nospam> wrote in message news:7E838348-0261-4617-88CB-B69A0E3B910E@microsoft.com... > IE 7 was RC1, not beta, which I presumed was OK.
