Helpful Stuff For IE7?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the forewarned-is-forearmed dept.

Cycloid Torus asks: "IE7 is with us. It asked to be installed as a Critical Update this morning, so I decided to find out more about what was going on and if there are issues to this new and official piece of Windows XP. I found a site of known IE7 issues to be of use. Are there other sites with solid information which can help the wary from getting charred with this upgrade?"

    "The user will see a large window advising that IE7 is available to install, and the user will have three choices; install, don't Install, or install later."

    I installed XP tonight and when I checked for updates there was, in the midst of 60 or so others, an IE7 entry. I unchecked it and was told that I had disabled a "critical update" and was advised to reenable it. I didn't, so I don't know if there would have been this other option he mentioned.
