Why was this quite old topic bumped?
anyway . . .

Security: Most likely
Usability: They've said IE7 will have tabbed browsing and a re-done configuration dialog
Standards: Microsoft has not given a hint yet that they will... so it's unlikely.
Spyware: It really doesn't matter. AIM, Kazaa, and the rest do that anyway.

Hmm, good that you said "atleast for Windows users." Since the IE for Windows License state that you much have a Windows license. Which make it illegal to run in Linux with WINE, unless you actually do own a Windows license.

I have no reason to even use IE in Linux, while I am a Firefox user I would rather take Opera/Konquerer before IE.

Ah well, I might say. If this is return of the browser wars where each browser adds new HTML tags that dosen't follow the W3C standards... -.-;;; Oh well, some competition can only be good for the consumers right?

IE7 wouldn't be a good reason to buy Longhorn if they kept with the orginal plans. With the lack of WinFS, is there really anything in Longhorn that is intresting enough to buy it? (well, apart from the fact that they probably will abonden WinXP is some point in the future)

I probably would install IE7 to the latest version when it get's released, but I doubt I use it.

Youd have to ask Wario21692, he bumped it.

Anyways on the spyware -- the lusers I work for work in a corporate environment where KaZaA, etc generally aren't used. They're blocked at the firewall, for starters, and I don't think the users even know what they are / how to use them. Yet we get a lot of spyware... HotBar is a fan favorite around my work

NO.

If browsers are going to compete, let them compete over secondary functions like interface options and ease of use. The primary function--proper, standards-compliant HTML rendering--must remain intact. Nobody wants to code for 15 different browsers.

And that's what the W3C standards are for.

...Firefox seems to compete more after following the standards than messing up the others.

The whole 'coding for multiple browsers' thing is simple. I write standard HTML, if your browser can't render it right, there's a link at the bottom of my site's main page where you can get a better one. (And no, on the next update which it's desparately in need of but probably won't see for a while, that won't link to Mozilla; rather, the same link at the bottom of the board.)

Again? This is one of the things I hate about IE and Windows in general. Every new version has all the dialogs completely rearranged, so you have to find everything all over again.
