AK> Anyone have similar problems loading IE 7? Not me. But I did see a thread somewhere in which people had bad installs of IE7. The tip off was that "Restricted Zones" was missing from the Alt-Tools-Internet Options -> Security tab. Only "Internet", "Local Intranet" (Is there another kind of Intranet? I mean, doesn't 'Intra' kind of imply local?), and "Trusted Zones" existed. You might want to check and see if you have all four listed. The (excuse me while I laugh) only work around was, apparently, reinstalling IE7, which (another laugh) apparently works in a lot of cases. I did not have this weird experience, however. OTOH, I don't let Windows Update do very much at all, preferring to download and install updates myself. I *always* select "custom" when I visit that dreadful and deceitful place, and as for "Automatic Updates" ... well, let's just say we don't go there. YMMV, Yuki ... Still waiting for the Linux version of AB. Sorry, emulators need not apply. (Monopoly pricing is now quite obvious on this round of upgrades -- go get 'em European Commission.)
