Internet Explorer 7 Recommendation

By Norada Engineering

Microsoft recently distributed IE7 to Windows XP and Windows 2003 systems as a regular Windows Update (installation was optional). IE7 is a significant improvement over IE6 and Solve360 fully supports this new browser.

IE7 does however have a bug which can cause the browser to slow down resulting in delayed typing and/or missed keystrokes. To workaround this bug Microsoft recommends disabling IE7's new "Phishing Filter" or applying a software patch.

Determine what version of Internet Explorer is currently installed:

  • From IE's menu click Help, About Internet Explorer

To disable IE7's new Phishing Filter (recommended):

  • Press the <ALT> key to bring up IE7's menu
  • Click Tools, Internet Options
  • Click the Advanced tab
  • Under the "Security, Phishing Filter" heading click Disable Phishing Filter
  • Click Apply, click OK, restart IE7
