Micro$oft to bring Internet Explorer to the 21st Century

Leaking rumor has it that IE7 (due for beta this summer, production sometime next year, or so M$ says), will not only feature New, Improved Security, but will integrate M$’s New, Improved Anti-Spyware Software and (gasp!) tabbed browsing and (wow!) a built-in news aggregator.

Hmmm. Sorta like Firefox. Big surprise. “Don’t bother installing that browser,” M$ seems to be coyly saying, “since we’ll (eventually) have something that has the same faboo feature list. Zowee! And it will have the Micro$oft name on it!”
