It didn't close any apps for me.
I closed IE, ran the installer and all other apps just stayed open.

IE 5.2.2

Installed neatly, didn't close anything, and yes, there is a noticeable improvement in peformance. I've checked a couple of sites, and it definitely loads more quickly.

So far, so good.

The IE installer actually said it had to close all running apps before installing.

Maybe it checks if you have IE running and if it is running it closes all apps?

I'm still seeing a TON of sites display like my problem here:

http://www.macosx.com/forums/showthr...threadid=22445

So many that I just recently decided to switch to OmniWeb - 4.1.1beta I believe. So far I haven't seen the problem with OmniWeb (but I have with Chimera, and Mozilla...Netscape 7 won't install on my machine for some reason).

So, along with the newest OmniWeb and the cool new buttons here: http://homepage.mac.com/sergeidoc/toolbar/etoolbar.html I was all happy.

I thought I'd give 5.2.2 a try to see if the problem cleared up. Nope. Still get it.

Back to OmniWeb...

I use Navigator full time now.
The latest public build is "ok" but the latest Nightly build is great!

Give it a shot.
