zdnetasia.com— Microsoft may be on the verge of releasing the latest version of its Internet Explorer (IE) Web browser, but it has been beaten by a competitor to the use of the IE 7 domain name.

what is funny is, when you do a google search for ie7... the 2nd site that shows up is ie7.com (Get Firefox)... who ever knows how to google bomb, they should make internet explorer or ie or ie7 go to mozilla.com/firefox...
@lakawakWow, you Microsoftie fanbois are really on the defensive these days! I think anthonyretro was making a point about how ridiculous International Trademark law is, and not specifically about Microsofts' use thereof. Next time, try taking a deep breath and counting to 10 before posting, it would really help you relax.
"If this were to go to court, our legal system would closely resemble an episode of Sesame Street."IE7.com is brought to you by the letters "F" and "U".....Had to be said, sorry. :)
that's just what that horrible, spiteful, evil, nasty, and completely villainous mozilla would do. If I had one chance everyone who worked for them would burn up. Buried to oblivion.

Haha! Great move Digital Dataflow. For a while there, I thought this was a FireFox marketing scheme. Smart, but not if MS is a cry baby..
