Hard to say about that approach. The advantage of a hash rule is that you are
sure you are getting the right-executable. However, since IE 8 is only in beta,
and since they have different versions for each version of Windows, it could
get complicated. Would anyone be interested if I could build a command-line
utility that let you create SRP hash rules in either the local GPO or
domain-based GPOs based on feeding in a setup file path?

How about faking a "more recent" version? What happens if you try to install
IE when a "newer" version is (allegedly) installed? --I haven't checked, by my
first thought was to check the Install conditions on that package, if it does
come as an MSI.

That would only work if MS has put some kind of hook into the IE 8 setup to
respect a particular reg value. I haven't heard of that yet, though it may
exist.
