Internet Explorer 7 beta preview 2

So I tried the IE7 beta preview 2. It looked OK but caused problems with software that used the ".URL" file type among other things. E.g. if I clicked on a URL in a Yahoo Messenger chat window it opened the Yahoo folder on my hard disk instead of the URL. And some random crashes. Whatever.

And it looks like Microsoft is becoming more psychedelic in the color schemes it uses for its software. The IE7 setup color scheme looked pretty wierd and non-Microsofty. Not to mention news I read some place that said that Vista will have guitar strains as a part of the Windows sound scheme.

Here's an important link - how to uninstall IE7 beta preview 2. And thats what I just did now.
