[Laszlo-dev] More potential good news about IE7

[Max Carlson]

I decided to verify the anecdotes since I can easily branch off a 
separate test copy of windows with Parallels.  I'm happy to report IE 7 
beta 3 performs much better than IE 6, especially wrt DOM leakage. 
Reloading the app no longer causes LzPix startup times to slow down...
