Blocking IE8
How do I prevent IE8 from installing on my system as an automatic update. I looked at MS Tools and the
blocker toolkit appears to be only for the 64 bit versions of Vista which I do not have?

Good point Rebel9. I always keep my updates set at notify me that there are updates but do not download them. This gives me controll of what and when updates are installed

IE8 has not been released, therefore it will not be comming down automatically at this time.

Yes, I just found out. I downloaded it. It was not listed as a Windows update, but I was able to do a manual update.
