IE7 and Windows updates

Posted in Computers & Internet on 17 Aug 2006.

This was not made very obvious when I installed IE7:

OS Updates–Do not reinstall any version of Microsoft Windows in any way after you install Internet Explorer 7. Do not upgrade in place or upgrade to a new edition. The workaround is to remove Internet Explorer 7 Beta, install operating system updates, and then reinstall Internet Explorer.

(Found at IE7’s Release Notes just now.)

Hmm - of course, several updates have automatically installed themselves since then. So should I expect a blue screen of death sometime soon…?
