Do you agree that products always have room for improvement?
"Every day there are little things in software that we find annoying. Some write books about it, like Annoyances.org, but I thought this site would be more constructive.

We suggest that there are a description and URL for each one to get more info about each one (to help the user decide if they need the add-ons functionality)

Quite often I accidentally close an IE window by mistake. It would be very handy to be able to reopen the last closed window using an File-Re-open Last Window option. Not sure if this can happen, but when I accidentally close an IE window by mistake, I would like to be able to do a Control+Z to undo it and have the window open again. I would like to reboot my PC and all my IE windows come back. Note: Firefox allows you reopen your tabs.
Figure: I want IE to have this “Recently Closed Tabs” feature
Say you have 3 IE sessions and each one has 3 tabs. If I’m forced to shut down my machine, how do I reopen all those browser sessions?
IE needs to extend the current
“Reopen Last Browsing Session” feature
to
“Reopen Previous Browsing Sessions” and include a sub-menu with a number of previous sessions. I would say 10 prior sessions would be a nice number.
Note: The 3rd Party Addin for IE8 called IEPRO does not have this feature either.
Figure: I want to open more than the last browsing session
Figure: This is the same feature as above but is lost when you install the Google toolbar
Firefox does this well, IE does not.
Figure: It is easy to open a recently closed tab in Firefox. Not in IE
Tip: Did you know it’s actually possible in IE?
Answer: Use the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+T, but it’s not in the menus. IE users are not mind readers.
Add the same menu item “Open last closed browser tab”, please.
Tip: How to remember this shortcut? Answer: It is the equivalent of Ctrl+T, which inserts a tab. To do the reverse, add “Shift” and it does the reverse
I would like another option “Delete all for current domain (microsoftsharepoint.com)”.
I don’t want to “Delete All”.
Figure: Only “Delete All” option is available
How did I miss this, 2 words and I have found the URL?
What a quick way to find a URL.
Figure: IE need a better address bar like this
Does the below dialog annoy everyone?
Figure: Want to show a image but popup a download dialog
Why does the IE team not design you to run IE6 and IE7 side by side on the same PC?
Seems a strange thing to not keep on shipping…
The disable ones are counter-intuitive. “Ticking” something normally means turning something on, not turning something off.

IE should be able to do spell checking like how Firefox does.

The Page Properties in Internet Explorer is useful to view file size information of a web page. The file size displayed on this window however can confuse a user as it is unclear whether this figure includes images attached to that page.
I would also like to see the file size displayed on this window including images attached to that page.
Figure: Add a new property called Size including Images” under “Size”
