Unfortunately, Windows 7 users don't have much of a choice about upgrading. Microsoft will install IE 10 the next time your computer installs automatic updates.
Not happy about that? Microsoft has a way around it. It's creatively called the Toolkit to Disable Automatic Delivery of Internet Explorer 10.
Simply download and run it the program. Next time your computer updates, it will leave IE 10 out of the package.
I only recommend using this if you use and like Internet Explorer 9. Older versions of Internet Explorer are unsafe and really need to be updated. I'll tell you why in this must-read tip.
