Back in early November IE7 tried to install on three of my Win 2K3
servers. Fortunately I pay attention to these updates and do custom
installs. I unchecked IE7 (and the security updates for Media Player),
went ahead with the install, and checked "Don't notify me about these
updates again" in the "Hide Updates" dialog that then pops up.

Since this time, I've had to do the same thing three additional times,
including today! Why is Microsoft trying to push this software onto my
Win 2K3 server when I've already informed them several times not to?
