You should be seeing the latest and greatest (hehehe) Internet Explorer appear in your updates soon. Go ahead and accept it. I just did last night and at first glance, it looks pretty good.... Very "Firefoxy" if I do say so myself... At least it is no longer in Beta stage, so you should have no problems with it messing anything up on your system. Mine seems to be fine so far, and I am looking forward to checking it out.
I have updated my Computer Resources page. Check it out. There is a link to Dave's Computer Tips... really good stuff!
