    Not so IE

    This is too good! When you go to www.ie7.com, a big Firefox logo is displayed. Internet Explorer 7 has not yet officially been released, and I guess they didn’t bother to register the domain either.

      Actually, Firefox (Mozilla) didn’t purchase it. It says right at the top: “Neither this site nor Mozilla is connected with Microsoft.”

      Josh- Mozilla might be associated with it.

      The comment’s wording is a little misleading, but what it actually is saying is, “This site is not associated with Microsoft.” and, “Mozilla is not associated with Microsoft.”

      it is NOT saying
      “This site is note associated with Mozilla.”

      Wow!

      What a find. Seems to be the work of a ‘renegade Mozilla fan’.

      Won’t last long. Laws in the US allow Microsoft to claim ownership of the domain if they own the brand name.

      So simple and yet so subversive. It’s great!

      Mozilla didn’t buy it. The Whois info says it’s owned by something called Digital Data Flow. Still funny though.

      if it werent for the new pc’s coming with IE already installed, IE wouldn’t be around (hello netscape). firefox is the best by far. i don’t know why IE users don’t make the switch to firefox.

      but i do have one question:

      fred, what were you doing venturing onto internet explorer’s site in the first place?

      ;)

      IE7.com…

      Por medio de Advertising/Design Goodness, me entero de que si uno intenta acceder al sitio IE7.com se encontrará con una gran pantalla azul en la cual aparece el logo de Mozilla Firefox bien grande.

      Linda broma que, seguramente no fue ideada por ning….

      Go Firefox, go! Thats my Mozillia hompage XD. I am a IE7 user though since it is more compatible with all Microsofts products. i love Firefox as well, though,
