It is interesting to know that Microsoft in an unprecedented move has offered IE7 to all users including those running pirated versions of windows OS.
The new version of the popular browser was released last year and until now Microsoft had restricted it to those who could prove that they had a legitimate OS.
Earlier, all users had to undergo a validation test before getting IE7.However, the company changed its mind the other day and made IE7 available to all windows users. It can now be downloaded from the site:

This is the first time Microsoft has given up on the validation check for a major product. Users feel that this change must be due to the growing popularity of Firebox.
