Ditch IE forever (even for Windows Update)!

Post by Sovereign »

Thanks to IETab! Running M$ Update as we speak. The only downside with MSUpdate is that it tries to prevent you from using your browser. Pressing Control-Shift-Tab allows you to move through tabs and surf normally. However, the internet address in the top bar will still read update.microsoft.com for some reason...

Note: IE has to be installed for this to work, but you don't have to ever have IE's uglyness pollute your screen again!
