How do I stop an automatic update to Internet Explorer?
Go to start menu-control panel-automatic updates. You can change the setting to ask you before installing. I recomend reading what the update is for and choosing to download and install it based on that. You will get many people that will essentially tell you to “blindly trust” everything Microsoft shoves at you. Their “stealth” patch a couple months ago that broke a number of systems and Vista are two easy examples of why you should not do that. Another thing I recomend is to not use IE anyway (Firefox is my browser of choice). Your most vulnerable point on a computer is your web browsing. IE is tied directly to the “core” of windows and your computer. You tell me how smart it is to give your most vulnerable point direct access to the heart of your system. Security is and always has been Microsofts weakest link. Sorry about the rant, but I saw the fanbois were already telling you to just “eat the red pill” “for your own good”.
