Pros
I have used Internet Explorer 7 since it was in Beta 2 version. I must admit the final version of IE 7 has figured out most of the hateful problems. So, What are the pros? It supports Active-X but limits it! This is a good step to maintain a balance between compatibility and security. Unlike Firefox or Opera, they do not support active-X for security reasons. More standard-support, phishing-filter, tabbed browsing, new UI, improved printing, RSS and a lot more.
Cons
Actually none by now. I must admit that security holes existed. Microsoft should be cautious on the change in Internet to patch the holes from time to time.
