IE7 isn't available through Microsoft's website? that is odd.

its available all over the place, but you have to have a legal copy of windows to be able to download it

That makes more sense then. Noone has cracked it yet?

Does it actually install the WGA software, or what?

My copy of XP is not valid, but I have just not installed WGA so I still get security updates.

Windows Genuine Advantage software. It is the thing that scans for your activation key and then nags you if it is not right.

IE7 is gay. Use Firefox.

I have read a couple reviews of them head-2-head and everyone selects the newests firefox still. I can't say that I have used IE for anything outside of updates for years.

I downloaded IE 7 just to try it out, and its a rip off of Firefox, and a bad one at that. I'm by no means saying its not a bad update; its a ton better than the old explorers, but still not up to par.
