What Microsoft thinks of Internet Explorer 8

If you are using Internet Explorer 8 beta 1 and visit Microsoft Windows Update you are confronted with the following error message:

Quote:
[COLOR=#587edc]Thank you for your interest in obtaining updates from our site. [/COLOR]

To use this site, you must be running Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 or later.

To upgrade to the latest version of the browser, go to the Internet Explorer Downloads website.

If you prefer to use a different web browser, you can obtain updates from the Microsoft Download Center or you can stay up to date with the latest critical and security updates by using Automatic Updates. To turn on Automatic Updates:

  1. Click Start, click Control Panel, and then click Security.
  2. Click Security Center, and then make sure Automatic updating is turned on.

To enhance the security and performance of your computer, make sure Windows automatic updating is not turned off.
I wasn't digging to find this error message, I happened to click the link off the IE Blog for Windows Update expecting the usual behavior in Windows Vista of having it start up the Windows Update program. I'd upload a screenshot but I fear for my bandwidth.
