For starters the ad at the top of the page is outside of the body tag and the others in between the posts are too wide for the content area. It works fine in IE6 normally as can be seen here:

No more IE6 for me. Not that I used it or will use IE7 much. I think it is those ugly hacks that are breaking the few sites I have seen that don't render in IE7. I think the message to IE users is, "you MUST upgrade" and the message for web developers is "you MUST stop the hacks - only use standards compliant XHTML (or HTML) and CSS". :-) Hi Andres,

It is nowhere near as good as a fully expanded and personalized version of Firefox, but it is definitely a major improvement from the older versions. Beside the new features (which Firefox and Opera users have had for years) the support for CSS is obviously improved a lot in IE7. Now, if everyone could stick to the web standards and avoid using ugly, non-standard browser-specific hacks, there will be hope for the future of the web! It is exciting to say these words: I will never use IE6 on my own computer again! (Wow, that felt good...)

Well I shall use Firefox forever! Or, like it's going to happen, something better comes along. I have already seen one or two websites that are horribly disfigured in IE7 that even IE6 could do. The good news is that from what I can see, if you code without hacks, which I try to do, IE7 does seem to work most of the time. Hey Sean, hows it going?

I've actually uninstalled it from my machine as well as client machines until they get it working a little better. I still recommend Firefox or anything else besides IE for now.
