For individuals of you who deal with your organization’s desktops utilizing Windows Server Update Providers (WSUS) Net Explorer 8 will probably be manufactured offered through this engineering beginning August 25,
Office 2010 Professional, 2009. Internet Explorer eight is going to be produced offered as an “Update rollup” and will probably be applicable to all supported languages.
Is my organization affected?
If your organization uses WSUS and has it configured to auto-approve Update rollup packages, upon acceptance of the Net Explorer eight End User License Agreement (EULA) by the WSUS administrator, Web Explorer 8 will install automatically on computers running World wide web Explorer 6 or 7 on supported operating systems.
What should I do if I auto-approve Update rollups but want to control when I deploy Net Explorer 8?
To give you control over how and when Web Explorer eight is deployed in your environment, perform the following steps:
Before August twenty five, 2009:
Turn off auto-approve for “Update rollup” packages in WSUS,
Microsoft Office 2010 Product Key, and approve the updates manually. Note: Even if Auto-Approve for “Update rollup” is on,
Microsoft Office 2007 Enterprise, you will still be required to approve the Web Explorer eight EULA before World wide web Explorer 8 is deployed to downstream clients.
After August 25,
Office 2007 Download, 2009:
Synchronize your WSUS server. Decline the Web Explorer eight update packages. If you typically auto-approve update rollup packages, you can re-enable automatic approval for “Update rollups.”
What other World wide web Explorer 8 updates will be available by means of WSUS?
Cumulative security updates for Web Explorer eight and Internet Explorer eight Compatibility View List updates will also be released by way of WSUS as they become offered.
To deploy Net Explorer eight today, visit the Internet Explorer TechNet Center – among other useful resources you’ll find an Internet Explorer Deployment Guide and information about the Net Explorer Administration Kit which explains how to generate a MSI installer and distribute it utilizing Systems Management Server or Group Policy.
