Re: IE8 as important update + license terms

So asking for advice. Should I ignore all the legalese & just install

installations?

I told Windows to keep IE8. I'm not at all keen that it's a 'critical
update' based on my experience with IE7. I'm not a Microsoft basher by
any means. When I installed IE7 (or was it 6?) my HP printer drivers
went casters up. Now that could be HPs fault and probably is, but my
point is that you're getting more than a browser; you're getting some OS
upgrades too.
