"The Best IE"
Version: IE7Pro 2.4.7
Pros
It has all the options you could want
Cons
Some say it's not as secure as IE8 or as fast but I don't agree
Summary
I've tried IE8 a couple of times but when you want to get some add ons or find your preferences it's too much work in IE7 Pro it's all laid out nice and easy

"downloaded this for ad blocking. Doesn't work at all."
Version: IE7Pro 2.4.7
Pros
No idea. I uninstalled when the only feature I wanted didn't work
Cons
The ad blocking feature has a list of default filters already installed, but they don't seem to block any current ad generating sites. User added filters don't work, even though correct syntax is used.
Summary
Waste of time.

"very convenient app to have for downloading anything"
Version: IE7Pro 2.4.7

easy to use, you can check where the downloaded file location is, is as fast as your computer allows (i.e.-fast computer means quick download speeds).
can pick up dropped downloadsCons
cant think of any downers to this one
Summary
Clever application, easy to use, integrates well with I.E. and has other functionalitys' as well like the grab pro toolbar

"Somewhat overpowering, but it does what it says"
Version: IE7Pro 2.4.7
Pros
Underlines incorrectly spelled words on the fly (like MS Word spell check). Free
Cons
Bundled with other software that can't be disabled in free version, miniDM (download manager); also takes over some other aspects of IE, such as 404 error.
Summary
I wanted a simple program that would underline the words I mispelled so I could fix them individually. I like IE's other functions and didn't want IE7Pro to take over. I prefer the standard 404 error screen, I prefer not having a download manager.
These are all things that you would be able to turn off if you purchased a full version of this product. However, with the free version, it is all or nothing. It also has adds on the 404 error page, which I don't want. Maybe I expect too much for my freeware, but that is just how I am I guess -
"It absolutely works. A miracle!"
Version: IE7Pro 2.4.7
Pros
I can now surf the internet and my favorite sites w/o the hassle of rolling/scrolling/blinking/talking annoying ads. EASY to install. EASY to change settings and/or disable unnecessary features.
Cons
It did try to push additional downloads w/ its install; and added a few features I wasn't interested in.
Summary
Works. I was beginning to despair of the internet completely. It doesn't block all types of ads, but I will settle for 90% of the ads being blocked.

"Great product but outdated.."
Version: IE7Pro 2.4.7
Pros
* Only real freeware "adblocker" for IE
* Tiny, lot of optionsCons
* out dated
* features most likely fail with IE8 andIE7 updated versions
* Adblocker not very updated and manual filters seems not workingSummary
Imagine you've the power of Firefox adblocker in IE. That's exactly what IE7 purpose was. This was initially IEpro and later changed to IE7pro. Now the last update from developer is they are working to update and change it back to IEpro.
Anyway coming to the point, hope the IEpro team can deliver a new version sooner. -
"It messed up Winxtreme"
Version: IE7Pro 2.4.7
Pros
None that come to mind
Cons
Outdated and buggy
-
"Very useful add-on."
Version: IE7Pro 2.4.7
Pros
It gives me the IP address of the site I am on this can be useful information. I like the mini-download manager and the ease of use/ It still works with IE8.
Cons
It needs to be updated for the IE8 or at least for IE9 which will be out in the near future.
-
"software is outdated"
Version: IE7Pro 2.4.7
Pros
sounds cool for people who still USE IE7 which is not likely since Microsoft required upgrades to IE8.
Cons
outdated which why i gave 1 star.
Summary
It would be good if they released an IE8 version which more people will use.
-
"Software out of data and old news"
Version: IE7Pro 2.4.7
Pros
It adds features to IE7
Cons
IE7 is old news and you should have upgraded to IE8 a long time ago.
Summary
1 star given because this software is now out of data making it useless today. It works great and has very good features, however, it should be updated to IE8Pro to be relevant and useful.
