[Molvis-list] Protein Explorer vs. Internet Explorer 7

Protein Explorer (PE) (http://proteinexplorer.org) does not operate in 
Internet Explorer 7. If you plan to use Protein Explorer, don't hesitate to 
upgrade to Internet Explorer 7 as long as you can also plan to use Firefox 
(http://getfirefox.com) for Protein Explorer.

In summary:
  - Firefox supports all of PE' capabilities.
  - Internet Explorer 6 does not support PE's "Features of the Molecule", 
nor the development of MolSlides, but most of PE works fine in IE6.
  - Internet Explorer 7 does not work with PE at all.

The current version of PE (2.79 Beta) fails to start in IE7, ungracefully. 
Unless I find a workaround (seems unlikely now) the next release of PE will 
"gracefully" (explicitly) refuse to start in IE7.
