It's been reported in the past, but it's a real issue next week. Next Tuesday—not coincidentally Patch Tuesday—Microsoft will make Internet Explorer 7 available on WSUS (Windows Software Update Services) as an Update Rollup package. It's not the default, but it's possible to configure WSUS automatically to install Update Rollups. If you have so configured your server and you do not wish to install IE7, this is the time to take prompt action.

Personally, I think it's a mistake to avoid IE7, but you need to keep in control of your software environment.
