A reminder: Microsoft to push WGA-free IE 7 to business users today

It's February 12. Today's the day that Microsoft is set to push its Windows-Genuine-Advantage-free version of Internet Explorer (IE) 7 to customers using Windows Software Update Services (WSUS).

This is the release of IE 7, officially known as IE 7 Installation and Availability Update, which Microsoft made available for individuals to download on their own back in October 2007.

Customers using WSUS 3.0 and/or those customers running IE 6 on Windows machines who don’t want the new IE 7 update to install automatically will need to take action, the manageability team noted. Specifically, administrators will need to disable auto-approval.
