Is is possible for IE7 to run any slower? and consume any more resources?  So
far it has turned my 15GB internet connection speed into what feels like dial
up again.  IE7 is bloated and sucks in the worst way.

Please fix ASAP or give up.

i couldn't agree more, prior to upgtaging to ie 7 i had upped the ram in the
system to 1.5GB i was surprised how much better everything was running
especially ie 6 which was almost instant in launching, loading a page as fast
as i could want, all hunky dory so to speak!
after ie 7 oh dear.......

90-100% CPU usage for most web sites particularly those with frames and lots
of links, shop sites in particular, ebuyer just stopped. Turned of the
phishing filter which seems to have helped with some of the sites, i'm going
to spend another hour (my 5th) trying to sort this out before I it remove
forever. I've never bothered with other browsers but i going to try all the
rest and leave IE alone!

What sort of testing was realistically done with this, Its got to be a bug,
as a number of reviews are singing its praises in it low resource usage.
