Can I stay with IE 7?

I have a question about the update to IE 8. Do I have to deliberately de-select IE 8 during the Wave 1 update if I don't wish to update to it yet?

Windows Update

Wave 0 - Week of March 23 (for Beta / RC users) & Week of April 13 (for all other users)
Wave 1 - Week of May 18, 2009
Wave 2 - TBD

Secondly, does the automatic update mean that it will automatically change my IE 7 to IE 8?

Automatic Updates
Wave 0 - April 27, 2009
Wave 1 - May 5, 2009
Wave 2 - June 24, 2009

Hello Daveski,

You don't have to update your IE7 to the newer one the IE8 via automatic update. You can always hide any update which you don't want to install. Also there is possibility to restore hidden update and install it later, whenever you decide to do this.

Hope it was helpful.

OK, thanks. I was just wondering if it would automatically update without giving me the option to opt-out.
