... like some of the ones here on ZDnet.
WGA or not, it doesn't really matter since we found IE7 to be slow and to crash often when compared to IE6. We won't be loading it on any of our machines until it is fixed.
You see, WGA doesn't matter to us here at work because we get paid to deal with it. It's just part of the job.
Yes, I think MS is going the wrong way by annoying and pestering honest customers, but that has no bearing on our work environment.
Functionality however, that *is* a big deal ... and IE7 is just plain broken.
MS, please fix IE7 first.

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.
