users who claim the update is wreaking havoc on their computers. One
user said in a Microsoft newsgroup: 'I downloaded and installed [the
SP3] package for IT Professionals and Developers on one of my
computers. Now I can't get the computer to boot. I don't think

users will no longer be able to downgrade from IE7 to IE6.
