| Dear colleague
| Microsoft has released Internet Explorer 7 and this is now available in
| the Windows XP updates program on your computers. For those of you who
| have set the option to notify you before downloading updates we are
| advising you not to install it as it has not been fully tested with many
| of the central business applications and systems. You should go into the
| Windows updates program and deselect 'Windows Internet Explorer 7.0 for
| Windows XP' before you download the updates.
|
| We will send out more information once it has been fully tested.
|
| Please pass this onto colleagues within your faculty.
| Many thanks
