Internet Explorer 7 is now an automatic update
This is boring, isn't it? You've got a lot more going on in your life than watching for new revisions of a web browser.
This one may improve your computer security quite a bit. It's too early to tell, but I've looked over the kinds of work Microsoft has done and it all makes sense and the changes are close to what I would have prescribed to make Internet Explorer less dangerous.
If you regularly visit places where Firefox doesn't work well, I recommend giving IE7 a try. To see what Microsoft says and download it if you don't want to wait for the automatic update, see the IE7 introduction page.
UPDATE 11/3:
If you have any of the surprises that tend to follow upgrades, here's a guide to troubleshooting IE7.
