<P> Windows Internet Explorer 7 was released on 18 October 2006 . It includes bug fixes , enhancements to its support for web standards , tabbed browsing with tab preview and management , a multiple - engine search box , a web feeds reader , Internationalized Domain Name support ( IDN ) , Extended Validation Certificate support , and an anti-phishing filter . With IE7 , Internet Explorer has been decoupled from the Windows Shell -- unlike previous versions , the Internet Explorer ActiveX control is not hosted in the Windows Explorer process , but rather runs in a separate Internet Explorer process . It is included with Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 , and is available for Windows XP Service Pack 2 and later , and Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 and later . The original release of Internet Explorer 7 required the computer to pass a Windows Genuine Advantage validation check prior to installing , but on October 5 , 2007 , Microsoft removed this requirement . As some statistics show , by mid-2008 , Internet Explorer 7 market share exceeded that of Internet Explorer 6 in a number of regions . </P>
