I'd like to know if IE7 had fixed security issues that were on IE6 or not yet?
Because not every thing can be played on FF

What does a security vulnerability have to do with certain media types not playing back in the browser? What type of media are you trying to view? I use Opera and I can view Flash/Shockwave, QT, RP, WM.

As with all software, there may have been vulnerabilities that were fixed, but there most likely is new ones. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Just don't be going to those "FREE!!!" ads and stuff, and you should be just fine with IE5.5/6/7 and Firefox/Opera.

Indeed... I don't even use IE all that much, prefer Firefox 2 but IE6 still serves me just fine when needed. Just be a smart surfer!

It could be due to a proxy you're going through if you are. Thats my problem, I have an Oracle app at work that I can only run with IE as it has to pass though our network prxy to connect whereas Firefox completely bypasses the proxy. If you find a way I'd like to know what it is. :)

No, I'm accessing this instance from to practice more, I'm attending course by oracle university for Oracle Financial Track:
- e-Business overview					 - 11i 5.10 General ledger
- 11i 5.10 Procure to pay fundamentals		  - 11i 5.10 Order to cash fundamentals
- 11i 5.10 Implement inventory				 - 11i 5.10 Asset management fundamentals
- Applications implementation methodology
and I'm accessing it from my home where I'm just connected to the internet directly with no proxy at all, just a router with real fixed IP, so if you can help me with this issue it will be great
Note: Off Topic ... is it acceptable to ask you if you know special forum dedicated to oracle application?
and you can send it in a PM if you want
Thanks

For Internet Explorer, security issues have existed that were patchable to eliminate the security problem; unfortunately crippling functionality has often been the result.
