Bug in IE7, I cant log into my router, any ideas?

Hi,

Since I put internet explorer 7 rc1 on my pc I cant log into my router settings (bebox). I enter the user id and password correctly 3 times and then a not authorized page comes up and something about intranet settings being turned off. My brother can still log in on his pc using ie6. We both have the same AV and firewall software so I know its not that. Do I have to change a setting in ie7 somewhere?
Thanks

use firefox
or
clear your temp internet files, and press CTRL + F5 (hard refresh) when it happens again.
its because IE7 is stupid and cashes the files even if you don't want it to.

Didn't work

The message I get is
HTTP/1.0 401 Authorization Required

I can telnet into the router from my pc so it must be ie7. Its a speedtouch 716.
Sorry for double-post.

Thanks, Firefox worked

Hope they fix the bug in ie7 soon, I like it a lot better than ie6 (the page zoom is great for short-sighted people like me

).

Have you made sure you're not logged into it anywhere else? On our router for some strange reason it only allows one person per time. Might be the same on yours?

Yep, checked that. Its just ie7 throwing a strop.
