I think I don't undestand...
Do you have opened the link I provided in IE7 and in FF2?
The 4th selection is $( '*' ) and if you hover it, its length is 13 in FF2 and 14 in IE7.

The problem is an extra META tag in IE7

Odd, running your example I get 13 for in both FF2 and IE7. Below is the Generated Source for both FF (using Web Developer plugin) and IE (using this bookmarklet).
javascript:document.write(document.body.innerHTML.replace(/</g,'<'));
In IE7 I got
<TD jQuery1191357893890="22">13: DIV, DIV, DIV, P, DIV, DIV, DIV, DIV, P, DIV, DIV, H5, P</TD>
and in FF2 I got
<td>13: DIV, DIV, DIV, P, DIV, DIV, DIV, DIV, P, DIV, DIV, H5, P</td>
What meta tag are you seeing?

I've just found that the problem is bigger, so I've opened a more general ticket: http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/1771
I have a weird meta tag added somehow by Skype in IE... it causes the n / n+1 difference between FF and IE.
I think that this ticket could be closed in favor of the new one.
I was unable to reproduce this bug in 1.2.1 with
<div class="context">
<a href="#">Link 1</a>
<a href="#">Link 2</a>
<a href="#">Link 3</a>
</div>
In IE6/7 and FF2 the length returned as 3. I also didn't see any differences in your example. Did the latest release fix this problem?
