Using add-ons to extend IE7 functionality in Vista _vista

While IE7 (Internet Explorer 7.0) has made great improvements over the previous generation, there is no doubt that the IE7 still has a considerable procedural disadvantage, especially in terms of functionality, compared with its main competitor, Mozilla Firefox.

However, just as Firefox can enrich itself with plug-ins, IE7 is able to extend its functionality through add-ons (add-ons)--and, of course, the add-on doesn't start with IE7, which has been widely used in previous versions of IE, Most of the rogue software used in the past few years has been implemented with this mechanism, but in the Windows Vista + IE7 environment, the malicious use of the add-in is controlled in some program. -Through add-ons, users can add and customize new features for IE7, depending on their needs.

To add a new add-in for IE7, find it on the Microsoft Marketplace Web site ( Note: Theoretically, anyone can write and distribute add-ons, but for security reasons, it's best to use a digitally signed or certified add-in ), or directly to the IE7 "tool" Click "Manage Add-ins" => "Find more Add-ins", and find the add-ons to achieve the function you want, download, install.

You can enable and disable the add-in at any time after the installation is complete.

For example, we love the "Reopen closed tabs" feature that Firefox provides when browsing a tab, and to achieve this in IE7, you can use the Ie7pro or IE7 Open last Closed tab add-in. The following figure enables the admin add-in interface after IE7 Open last Closed tab, which is easy to disable or remove.
