The IE7 blog has announced that with the release of Windows Vista Beta 2, the version of IE7 in Windows Vista will be christened "Internet Explorer 7+". While all versions of IE7 are built from the same code base, there are some important differences in IE7+, most significantly the addition of Windows Vista-only features like Protected Mode, Parental Controls, and improved Network Diagnostics. "These features take advantage of big changes in Windows Vista and weren’t practical to bring downlevel. The IE7+ naming gives us an easy way to refer to this version. ('The version of IE7 in Vista' doesn’t roll off the tongue as easily…)", said the blog.
The blog also notes that these differences shouldn’t affect most web developers, but if you need to know specifically, you can refer to the OS field of the User-Agent string.
