FYI - Internet Explorer 7 Screenshots

I found this link on Digg.com that referred to Internet Explorer 7. I downloaded the file and installed it. The experience wasn't too great, the computer rebooted fine, but when I ran IE7 for the first time, it failed from the get go, I closed it and tried it again...failed! I checked the specs on the machine, made sure all the updates were done - everything was up to date, so I restarted the machine, tried loading IE7 again and it failed. I included some sreenies of the failure.

I open Internet Explorer 7 and I'm greeted with this!

The version number is 7.0.5112.0 - Error report

For those of you who installed the software and are now regretting it, follow these steps (thanks Juke) to remove IE7 from your system, I'll just wait until the public Beta is released!

FYI - Use the Windows Vista Theme on your Windows XP Machine

I found this awesome theme on digg.com, I have installed it on my machine and it works great. The advantage of this theme pack is that it does not require a third-party program, it modifies adds to the existing set of themes on your machine. The theme is absolutely gorgeous, you don't sacrifice any resources because it's just like having another built-inWindows XP theme selected. If you chose to install the Y'z Shadow, and the other adds those do take up resources, but no more than 25 MB of RAM.

Only little problem I've experienced, sometimes the icons on the bar get stuck, all you have to do is hover above the icon and it'll go away.

FYI - Want to Talk Long Distance Without the Fees – Read On!

Google has just released Google Talk chat client. The software allows you to chat as you would on AIM or MSN messenger, but it also allows you to carry a voice conversation with whomever you’re chatting to. I’ve tried it out and the voice quality is excellent. If you wish to download the client go to http://google.com/talk after you’ve installed the client you need to have a GMail account to use it, if you don’t, I have a couple of invitations left, just email me and I’ll take care of you. Enjoy!
