IE7 Pro

General Topics

Anyone use it? Do you have to leave some toolbar visible if I install it? I really only want it to block Ads. If you have it, is it easy to unblock sites, like YouTube, so the videos don’t get blocked? Thanks!

I don’t use IE7 or 8, I prefer Firefox 3.0.1, it is much more secure and faster and customizable too :smiley:

Though Opera 9 is my primary browser, there are times when I need IE7 and I do have IE7Pro installed. If the toolbar was not visible, how would you make changes should you want to or need to do so? The 2 photos below should answer your other questions. If not, post again.

EDIT :

Forgot the 3rd photo. ::slight_smile:

I use it on all 3 of my XP systems but I do not use it to block adverts as I find that the use of a HOSTS file is much more efficient.

  1. XP Pro SP3 IE7 2.8GHZ P4
  2. XP Home SP3 IE7 2.4GHZ P4
  3. XP Pro SP3 IE8 beta2 500MHZ PIII

HOSTS files I use:

Managed with HostsMan and I use its HostsServer proxy to speed up browsing:

I do not like nor use Firefox nor Opera nor Google Chrome.

I also use a host file managed by Hostess but use the ad filter in IE7Pro as an extra layer against ads. Spybot also has a host file that is in use.

I love this add-on.

Simply amazing, gives everything IE7 shoulda gotten.
