Hi,
There are many advantages for using IE7+ that comes with Windows Vista, be
it 32bits or 64bits.

I thought so for a long time, but IE7 had a problem with javascript on
several of my regularly-visited sites. I would use Firefox 2 for
those.

When Firefox 3 was recently released, I ended up using that
exclusively. It whips ass on IE7... BAD.

I'm going to pickup the IE8 public beta when it's released in the next
few weeks and see how that is.

I recall seeing a mention of javascript on the status bar a few times
when I encountered a problem in IE that Firefox handled. I can't find
a site that does that now, but I can show you one of the problems.

I regularly visit several big-city newspapers - some of them only to
read their columnists. One is the Chicago Sun Times. Sometimes I
will click on an image on their main page to open a link to more
images with a clickable slide show.

Today's has an example. Click on the PHOTO GALLERIES on the right
side of the main page at www.suntimes.com . IE won't open it. If I
click on the words PHOTO GALLERIES a page will open but I can't click
through the slide show.

Try it with Firefox and it works just fine either way.

Basically, a 64-bit application runs faster than a 32-bit one.

But, in the case of a browser the 64-bit version is useless for daily usage.
This is because most browser plug-ins (including Silverlight, Flash, Java
and almost all ActiveX controls) only work in 32-bit browsers currently.
