How to upgrade Internet Explorer for all domain users.
Hi experts!
I am new to Active Directory. I have setup a domain and have 17 client compuers logging into the domain.
However, I will to know how to install software into the computers whenever they log in. For example, right now I would like to upgrade all computers to Internet Explorer 7 when they log into the network. Is this possible? How do I accomplish this?
THanks a lot!

Hi MW
I am having problems with the WSUS on my SBS Server. Apparently it was not correctly installed or some components are missing. Is there a way to remove WSUS and reinstall it from scratch?
Thanks

If WSUS isn't out of the picture, I also found this Microsoft Support article:

After quick research, I did discover that older IE7 releases had an interactive WGA check embedded in it. I found on the Microsoft site a new release that no longer has the WGA check embedded in it, thus might be able to be pushed to your client workstations.
