IE 7 Automatic Update - Not Yet

Yesterday, I mentioned a blog entry that said IE7 was already pushing out as automatic updates.

I don’t think he was right — I think he had downloaded IE7 and started the install, then left and forgot about it.  He did mention “…when I came back…”

But, the rest of that article is very pertinent, regardless of when you install IE7.

My desktop still has IE6 on it.  I decided I needed to keep one copy of IE6 on it (but IE7 on all my other computers).

Anyway, I even tried Microsoft Updates and IE7 is not showing up there yet.

Why?  I design web sites, so I need a copy of the ubiquitous IE6 to test designs, just as I look at them in Firefox (my normal web browser), Opera, and IE7.
