That’s right! Hot on the heels of IE7 is the final release of FireFox 2. Included are RSS reader, integrated phishing filters… not really anything that you couldn’t have gotten with Extensions, but nice to see it included in the overall package now. Also a bunch of tweaks to features already present and a slightly improved look, though overall, as far as aesthetics goes, it doesn’t look much different from FireFox 1.0 and 1.5.
Go and get it!
So yeah, this past week (meaning the past 7 days) Internet Explorer 7 was finally released to the public. Betas had been floating around for a while, but I had avoided installing them until a final release was made public, since IE upgrades your browsers and will not let you revert back to an earlier version once the deed is done.

At the time, I didn’t think too much of it, until PowWeb started upgrading all their existing clients for no extra charge. PowWeb also had pretty decent online customer service and tech support too. You could post any problems you have on their community forum, or you could simply log on to their IRC channel and ask your questions there. But soon, all things would come to a screeching halt.
