Microsoft showed off its preliminary work on the second beta version of Internet Explorer 7 at the Hack in the Box Security Conference here, and came away with some good feedback, company managers said Thursday.

"It's the first time we've ever come out ahead of a product release to present and get feedback," said Tony Chor, group program manager at Microsoft's Internet Explorer team, referring to the company's presentation to a hacker-specific group.
