Hi Gary,
I figured it out last night. I downloaded the .exe file from Microsoft. I
ran the file which extracted 4 files to my c:\ directory. One of the files
that was extracted was ie70blocker.cmd. Then I used the run function in the
start menu. I put the following line there:
ie70blocker.cmd /b
Almost instantly a box came up stating that it had been performed
successfully. I will have to see if it works when the updates come down. To
undo this command replace the /b with a /u and then IE 7 will then download.
Of course you can manually download it at your leisure.

Hi All,
Has anybody successfully been able to install and run the IE7 blocker that
will prevent IE7 from showing up in automatic updates? The microsoft
instructions are very unclear to me. Thanks for any help.
