3 machines ... no problems.

Added plus ... Internet Explorer now AUTOMATICALLY blocks pop-ups. You have to click below the Address bar to allow IE to either open a window, or allow a download.

No stability issues .... going on 5 weeks since installation.

**** This is MY milage and experience; on MY machines. My machines run 24/7 and without incident for ~5 weeks. YOUR milage may vary.

My last 2 attemps at Windows Update failed. The first one(about a week and a half ago)took about 2 hours to install and then hung on a full progress bar. The latest attempt(this evening) after waiting a couple minutes for a 6 meg download, then waiting 3 or 4 hours for installation, hung on a full progress bar. I had to force quit them both.

I don't know what to do with this crap anymore.

I've had the public beta for more than three weeks now with no problems.

I do like that IE blocks popups now, but for most of my work, I use Firefox.
