What are the updates?  Anything good besides behind the scenes security crap?

Just installed it.  Running it now.  New firewall updates and it integrates your antivirus stuff as well.  Nothing really big honestly.

Heard it was only 278 megs.  Just more network security and pop-up blocking in IE :ghey:

I jumped off the IE bandwagon alittle while ago. I use MoZilla right now but it\'s not the greatest. The image quality is different and it loads slightly slower.

Its a network based service pack. But i couldn\'t imagine the winupdate version being much different.

I have it on both computers at home and have 0 problems.  The pop up blocker on IE is handy... as for the other stuff - wait and see I guess.

I don\'t use IE so no biggie there, firefox already has a built in pop up blocker.  And I hardly get ANY spyware when I run my adaware and spy-bot, unlike using IE.

Yeah I use Firefox, but some pages don\'t like the browser.  I don\'t think there is any major need to install it immediately.  I just had nothing better to do. ;)

IE is behind the times. No Tabs? No sell!
