I'd certainly stay away from it for at least several months to a year. You know how everything M$ makes is full of holes and buggy, and that's even more the case with something new. If you don't use IE, then there's no reason to get it until IE (6 or 7) will no longer to be able to access the update site. -Clint God Bless, Clint Hamilton, Owner www.OrpheusComputing.com www.ComputersCustomBuilt.com www.OrpheusComputing.com/PCworks-computer-help-email-list.html ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sue Cubic" I don't allow automatic updates, but instead get a reminder in my task tray when updates are available. Today there's one for IE8. I never use IE (except to get updates). Is there any good reason that I should install this? OR, are there any good reasons _not_ to?
