IE 7 and standard links

Hi All

A friend has told me that links that worked fine in IE 6 on a PC are now not
working in IE 7. The only thing they can see is that these links have the
following common traits:

a) long file names, ie about 30 plus chars

b) underscores in the filenames.

c) They are derived from the old asp routine to force a pdf download rather
than open them up in the browser window.

I'm desperately trying to borrow a PC to install IE 7 (I don't want to
affect my own PC in anyway at the moment) to test this, but has anybody else
come across the same problems?

Thanks

Laphan

IE7 has an uninstaller. You can go back to 6 at any time.

In fact, I would not recommend leaving IE7 on a machine for any length of
time. It has to be removed before running an update, something I learned the
hard way (and needed to do a repair installation of XP to recover from)
after an automatic update ran.
