    It's still running.

    Laugh all you want but I have had it running on IE 8 (Windows 7 64 bit) for the past 5 minutes and it is still stuck at the first stage. So I think we have a legitimate reason why Internet Explorer was not included...

    Also got a warning that "A script on this page is causing your web browser to run slowly."...

    Or, manually, you can simply click "Windows Update" in the start menu/programs, which will determine what patches are available and allow you to select/deselect which ones you want to download and install.
    I'm not really sure how it could be much easier???


    One word: Slipstream.

    You take the newest service pack and integrate it with the original media. Then when you install it, it automatically has the service pack installed.

    Now what could be more easier???
