'extremely unsafe'? I'd say they are safe until Microsoft releases another IE 
version. With their track record, that could be *years*.

Given the choice between littering my html (thousands of pages) with 
conditional comments, or adding couple of hacks to a single CSS file, I'll take 
the hacks, thank you very much.

Despite all the doomsayers, I had zero problems with pages breaking when IE7 
came out.

cheers
Geoff.
