CNET Editors' review
IE7 Pro adds a lot of showmanship to the Internet Explorer browser. The freeware add-on has some smart solutions for tabbing, including default settings to open URLs in new tabs and let double-clicking close a tab down.
Here's another pleasant surprise: "dragging" and "dropping" an in-text link into white space opens the link in a new tabs without any mouse work. IE7Pro also borrows from several software concepts to help raise IE7's appeal, including Firefox's, to save and fill forms, and insert user scripts a la Greasemonkey. The MiniDM download manager adds a long-missing tool to IE's options, and the pre-fetching options makes IE much lighter on its feet.
The list of added features is long, but they're all accessible from a status bar icon that the program installs for you. Right-click on it to get access to mouse gestures, customizable hotkeys, and more. Highly recommended.

"Es lento pero seguro"
Version: IE7Pro 2.4
Pros
Es excelente para todo tipo de usuario, nada más existe la lentitud de apertura, por lo demás es un explorador bastante bueno.
Cons
La lentitud del mismo, tal vez se deba a todo lo que se instala y abre consecutivamente, por lo que en general, en mi opinión es excelente.
Summary
Por ejemplo cuando se está bajando cualquier cosa por medio de otro programa, este se alenta, dando respuesta de "oooops" sorry, don´t found this direction or path.

"One of very few 5 star ratings of mine."
Version: IE7Pro 2.4

Cons
none .....
Summary
This is one of extremely few applications that I give a 5 star rating to and no negatives.

"Disable Security Settings in Vista"
Version: IE7Pro 2.4
Pros
Did block some Flash stuff, that may be a good thing.
Cons
Disable Protected Mode for Vista. Not sure that it didn't steal my credentials since I had to log in to a service again after installing it. Seemed to slow browsing down noticably.
Summary
Disable Protected Mode for Vista. When I reactivated protected mode, app didn't work. Not all add-ins act this way, so there must be some fundamental flaw in the architecture of this app or IE that prevents it from working properly. As provided, didn't advise sufficiently as to what it would do to IE before modifying app. Not sure that it didn't steal my credentials since I had to log in to a service again after installing it. Seemed to slow browsing down noticably. .
