Same here, we can't roll out IE7 to a specific dept here as the company is 
looking for 50K just to support it on IE7.

The best thing about it is, IE7 was released before we got the 
application, it'll work in ie7, but not supported.

I've had to decline IE7 in wsus just to make sure that it doesn't get 
installed accidentally.

Re: New IE zero day exploit in the wild






LOL, but isn't it the computer if it's a Mac....seriously, I do 
understand.  I'm still stuck at IE6 because of two stupid enterprise 
applications that haven't been officially sanctioned by the mfg to run in 
IE7 or above.

Same here.  (I so wish we could use FF but a couple of our apps won't run 
if we do so I have to be content with using it myself.)

Yes, on several XP machines. So far nothing is broken, at least.

Our labs have confirmed this and it is quite nasty.  Best bet for now is 
to set the killbits. Or don't use IE.
