Vista IE7 issue remains unsolved for many users

Tip: Click here to update all your PC's outdated driversWhen I read stuff like this, it confirms my belief that there’s something very broken in the world of Vista. Here’s a very knowledgeable user and talented developer who’s confounded and befuddled by a well-documented and still unaddressed issue affecting Vista users running Internet Explorer 7.
The problem manifests itself as an annoying and increasingly frequent hang or time-out during which the PC is essentially rendered useless. This is not a productivity enhancing experience folks. This is a huge time sink. The emphasis below is mine.
I updated some of the drivers on the Toshiba the other day so maybe that’s what’s going on. I know there’s a specific order these drivers need to be installed in or else “things can go wrong.” What those things are I don’t know. Maybe that’s the problem I’m running into. The only cure I understand is to do a clean install and there’s no way I’m going to set aside a dozen hours to reinstall everything and get this machine back in order. I’d rather limp along until I find another Tablet PC. Right now I have my eye on a Lenovo with dual digitizers and the forthcoming Dell Tablet PC.
Sorry in advance if this doesn’t align with your experience and you’re a huge fan of Vista for whom everything is working just fine. IMO, this is yet another indication of how far Microsoft has to go to get Vista to a position of equivalent performance and stability to what we’ve come to expect to from XP SP2. Again, this is not an isolated incident or a case of PEBKAC*. Problems like this are all too common and are being widely reported and discussed in the tubes. Do a search and you’ll see what I mean. It’s increasingly evident that Vista is not a ready-for-prime-time operating system yet.
* A lovely acronym favored by tech support people which stands for Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair.

i've seen this one rear it's ugly head. usually if i'm patient, it'll eventually
resolve. seems to me that i used to see this one in xpsp2 as well.

[sounds good - but experience has taught me that

occasion "newer-stuff" can be faulty :(
not like you need to use ie7
opera licks taint's. i'd rather use safari, and you know what i hate apple!
seriously though firefox works just fine, and i've had no problems with ie7.
whats wrong with ie7? they finally made a browser thats worth a damn, that comes with
windows, and you want to use opera? thats laughable. and firefox is fair, but the
compatability issues ive gotten with somethings just isn't worth the hassle. ie finally
runs good, enjoy it
