IE 7 distrubted in Windows Update
The IE 7 team just let us know that IE7 is to be distributed via Automatic Updates!:
As we get close to the final availability of Internet Explorer 7, I want to provide an update on our distribution plans. To help our customers become more secure and up-to-date, we will distribute IE7 as a high-priority update via Automatic Updates (AU) shortly after the final version is released for Windows XP, planned for the fourth quarter of this year.
This doesn’t mean that the old IE’s will disappear in short order, but it nice to see that we may see a quicker uptake to IE 7 than past releases.
