How to Disable Automatic Delivery of Internet Explorer 7
To disable automatic delivery of Internet Explorer 7.0 to your computers via WSUS or Windows Updates you need to create a registry record , if you are unfamiliar with registry editing I recommend you to use the toolkit provided by Microsoft, that you can find in this article.
Registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftInternet ExplorerSetup7.0
Key value name: DoNotAllowIE70
If you dont give any value to DoNotAllowIE70 key or you set it to 0 (zero) it wont prevent automatic installation of IE70, to prevent automatic installations of IE70 you should set it to 1 (one). It will be valid till you change it. But it wont prevent you to install IE70 manually or by other deployment methods like SMS.
If you are unfamiliar with registry editing or you dont want to take the risk of editing I recommend you to use
