I’ve been using 7 just because I wanted to check compatibility of applications with the browser, and I hit no incompatibilities. Been using it ever since (to lazy and to risky to uninstall and go back to 6) and it’s fine. Since I have VS installed I get quite often the question if I want to debug IE7 when I shut it down, but I just nicely answer no and everything is fine

IE7 Makes some older versions of Excel do some really crazy things. The VBA engine in Excel (version 2003 and below) is obviously incompatible with the dot-net (death-net) framework. Or maybe it’s not dot-net, hell I don’t know, I do know that something is up. I had to uninstall IE7 to make Excel work again in such a way that I could view the files that we sell to our customers! That is enough reason for me not to trust IE7. The uninstall is actually fairly straightforward. On XP Home SP2 on my laptop it rolled right back to version 6… Probably, knowing this is after all Microsoft, I just got lucky!
