Posted by timothy on from the seekret-leaks-from-nowhere-in-particular dept.

CWmike writes "A post-beta version of Windows 7, Build 7022, leaked to Internet file-sharing sites also includes an updated version of IE8, according to searches at several BitTorrent trackers. With Microsoft halting new Windows 7 beta downloads on Tuesday, and blocking all downloads as of noon (EST) today, users are again turning to illegal sources to get the new operating system."

    So do we really need to have a Windows 7 article every day? It's in beta, it changes -- and it's not exactly eagerly awaited anyway.

    So, other than MS promoting this as much as the possibly can -- is there any need to have any articles on it at all, unless there's a major change?
