    is IE7 safe?

    I know IE6 isnt, but from what ive read the security has really been enhansed in IE7. I was wondering if it is safe to use on the internet because I want to use IE more than Firefox at present time, Firefox eats up my CPU usage (my CPU isnt much, a 500MHz Athlon).

    So is IE safe?

    It is safer than IE6 and not close to as safe as Firefox with the NoScript extension installed.
