IE 10 for W7

Is IE 10 for W7 http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/downloads/ie-10/worldwide-languages
necessary or will it update automatically? Or if it aint broken, don't fix it ?

In my opinion the necessity of IE10 at the moment is classified under user desire. The decision to upgrade is a choice that all users will have as a possibility.

Edit:
I'm not sure if Windows Update will automatically install or not.

Thank you. I'll wait to see if it wants to install next month.

I like it, I never really use IE, but it has improved... but it just doesnt cut it vs Chrome. It is improving, but IE will be at 400 HTML5 score in IE11 while Chrome is at the max haha. MS just isnt putting it as the priority as it used to. I gotta say, the Aesthetics need some work,I would wait for the next update to IE11 since some people are experiencing blue screens.

If by Chrome you're talking about google chrome, I won't have anything to do with it because of it tracking cookies
I love its speed, but don't like being tracked.
Anyhow, I've always heard one should update because of security, but I think I'll wait this time, thank you .

I like IEs simplicity, but Chrome and Firefox just outweigh it. Can't you use do not track in chrome also?

Right now Firefox is my default . I liked the speed of chrome & even went thru numerous threads in here in hopes of finding a way
to keep the cookies off, but another poster in here told me its because google ownes it & google wants to track you. I had the Do Not Track addon but no help. Here is one of my threads http://www.techspot.com/community/topics/question-about-google-chrome.182435/

There is a way to do not track in Chrome 24/25 stable now.

"Send a ‘Do Not Track’ request with your browsing traffic" in chrome settings.

I did that & here is my SAS results:

26 in all & yes, I had the Do Not Track thingy done.

A lot of sites dont support the Do not track request yet, it is a new thing. What is IEs score? And firefox? Try noscript and adblock in chrome and tell me the results. (while your at it test adblock alone, I am pretty curious my self haha)

I always include adblock plus on ANY browser I've used. As far as no script goes, I've tried it several times but too confusing to me.
If a browser don't have adblock or wot, I won't use it which is why my SeaMonkey is not being used right now.

lol dude we are so similar... I use adblock and I find no script confusing also haha. I like adblock more than adblock plus because it uses less recourses. I also recommend using HTTPS everywhere man.

Ok.
When the day comes somebody can find a way to keep those google tracking cookies off my computer, I'll gladly use it again.
At one time google chrome was my default browser, but now, its not on my pc's. Thank you.

What are your results with IE?

I don't allow 3rd party cookies in any browser & I rarely use IE for anything.
I used to use it for the occasional eset scan till I found out I can do that via firefox.
If thats what you meant by your reply.

Oh right sorry I thought you were using IE as default, forgot you used firefox.

No biggie, have an awesome one

Going back to the original topic, IE 10 wasn't automatically installed, but it was considered an "important" update so I bit the bullet

Welcome to the ie10 club!
btw, is your version the one with msn home page and bing search?
