Microsoft has quietly released a patch aimed at improving the performance of Internet Explorer 7's phishing filter ahead of the company's regular patching schedule, which occurs on the Tuesday of every month.

The update was made available last week on Microsoft's website, according to a blog entry on IEBlog, which is written by the IE team at Microsoft.

This update addresses an issue some users experience when navigating to a page with multiple frames, or where frames are being navigated simultaneously, according to the post by IE Program Manager Steve Reynolds. This kind of navigation occurs when the IE phishing filter, which attempts to block access to sites that may try to defraud web users, evaluates a web page when a user navigates to it. The result is multiple simultaneous evaluations for the same page, Reynolds wrote in his post.

    Although some say IE sucks like its a trend, while using it... :rolleyes:

    I love IE 7 and it can keep history much better than Firefox. In firefox you can't browse offline at all. IE 7 loads some pages much faster too.

    Anyway i'm using all 3 bowsers IE, FF and Opera

    when i am on GPRS firefox almost can't load web pages. it expires or just endless loading...
    But IE can do it really well. Even better than Opera. Best for slow connections and wireless internet like GPRS.
    Other thing really easy to make web pages to IE :D for firefox and opera you need bit extra effort.

    I don't know about you, but FF has been the fastest browser at the time I tested Opera 9, IE7 beta and FF1.5. And for ADSL users, history is no big deal, and you'll agree with it soon.

    Anyway, Firefox's extensions makes it a super browser :D
