Internet Explorer 7 has been designed to make everyday tasks easier, provide dynamic security protection and improve the development platform and manageability. End user improvements include a streamlined interface, tabbed browsing, printing advances, improved search functionality, instant feeds (RSS), dynamic security protection, and more.

Visit the Internet Explorer site for more information on Internet Explorer 7.

This download is for Windows Server 2003 SP1 or Windows Server 2003 SP2 only. To download Internet Explorer 7 for other supported versions of Microsoft Windows, see Related Downloads at source.

[:^)] Hmmm, is this the first Windows download for Windows Server 2003 that requires WGA check?

BlackDigital: No, all Windows Server versions of Internet Explorer 7 since RTM that were pushed down through Windows Update modally prompted for a WGA check before proceeding with the installation.

Not sure about the WGA check myself...though Server 2003 hasn't required it thru SP1.

I wonder,  is this a newer version of IE7 then the RTM one we got before?    It sounds like it's specific to Win2k3 SP2 etc, wonder what changes were made.

Haven't checked all versions of IE7, but it's getting pretty ridiculous seeing as we now have what...three, four versions of IE7?  Wouldn't be that way if they'd strip the browser from the OS.

IE7 isn't a part of the OS like IE6 was.  The fact we have 3 versions, XPSP2, Vista, Win2k3.  Has more to do with the difference in each OSs APIs for security and other things.  

It's no different then having different versions of an app in the past for NT/9x.  Or now with apps that have linux/unix and windows versions.

To correct my referrence, I was pointing to the fact that you can still change IE's settings via the Control Panel (i.e. Internet Options).  To me, that's still tied to the OS.

A browser needs to be a standalone application.

Different versions for different operating systems such as Linux, Mac, BeOS...or Unix is not in question.

Take Firefox for example....it's Window's version installs on XP, Media Center, Vista and 2003...all in one package.
