I used Microsoft Antispyware Beta 1 for about a year and I really liked the
utilities avaliable, like Tracks Eraser and HighJack Reset (where you could
set yuour defaulted websites and if your homepage was highjacked, you could
reset them).

Are there any plans to incorporate these utilities into Wiindows Defender?

Have you looked at IE7 yet?

Hi Bill,

I just installed IE7 yesterday to see how it was. I found that by doing so,
the default text in Outlook express messages is changed to a very heavy/bold
text that is not good on my eyes. I quickly uninstalled IE7. Everything went
back to normal.

I wonder if anyone else has had the same situation, or if I am an anomaly.

It is a little known fact--perhaps even by some OE development team members,
that OE's display and printing functions are done by IE code--when they say
IE is part of the OS, they mean it.

I have IE7 on a laptop that I don't run OE on, so I haven't seen this
effect--but I have heard other complaints about font rendering and IE7.

Hi

Are you using Clear type functionality ?

http://www.microsoft.com/typography/ClearTypeInfo.mspx

With a LCD screen and IE7 this is important to use.

You have one Powertoy and one ActiveX controlled
Clear type control.

Hi

OK ! I´ve seen it with LCD screens and after adjustments and
the power toy everything is perfect (better then before).

But as I understands it CRT monitors also take advantage of
Clear type functionality..

Q. Will ClearType improve text display on CRT monitors?
A. Yes, but less so than with LCD displays. Because a standard
cathode-ray tube (CRT) screen uses an electron beam to activate pixels,
ClearType does not provide the same benefits that you experience on an
LCD screen. However, because ClearType still applies a form of
filtering similar to traditional antialiasing, you may see some
improvement when enabling ClearType on a CRT screen.

But maybe this is a IE7 bug ?

Hi Richard,

From what I understand, ClearType is turned on by default when you install IE7.
To turn it off you must go to "Tools||Internet Options...||Advanced||Multimedia" and
untick "Use ClearType".
