Look, your BS meter is way off, ET.

From the article:

Microsoft will begin rolling out the browser as a "High priority" update next month. In July, when Microsoft offered up a toolkit to indefinitely postpone IE 7's installation, it justified using Automatic Updates, a mechanism for providing patches to Windows, because of the new browser's security implications.

Of course it is optional NOW! It won't be next month.

Read the dang article before saying my words are a "bunch of BS".
