Software giant Microsoft has now announced that they are changing the name of Internet Explorer 7 version planned for shipment with Windows Vista operating system.

This version was originally planned to be referred to as Internet Explorer 7+. This was a bit different from Internet Explorer 7 planned for Windows XP as it offers additional features, such as the “protected mode”, that are platform specific.

Microsoft group program manager Tony Chor wrote in a blog post that the decision to change the name of the browser was based on user feedback. He wrote: “The feedback we got on the blog was overwhelming – many of you didn’t like it.”

The official names for the applications moving forward will be Windows Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP and Windows Internet Explorer 7 in Windows Vista.
