Microsoft releases first IE7 update, resolves a performance issue with the Phishing Filter

 

Microsoft released first update for IE7 (not for Windows Vista).

 

This update resolves a performance issue with the Phishing Filter. When visiting certain web pages, the Phishing Filter may increase CPU usage while evaluating the page contents and the system may become slow to respond. This problem occurs on pages that contain multiple frames or when multiple frame navigations occur quickly. After you install this item, you may have to restart your computer.

Surprise surprise - that particular filter was dodgy from day 1 (the whole thing was wide open to phishing)

 

Best security update for IE7? Don't install the thing in the first place

Im with you on that, firefox rules, i hate IE7 but have used it a bit over its time with the Vista beta, but i still use Firefox over everything else

Actually the first thing I did with the Release Candidates of Vista was to install Firefox - the only time IE ever got opened was for MS updates

I did the same thing. Funny but to me, FF 2 runs faster in Vista than IE7 does.
