I've downloaded the patch and cannot trying testing until tomorrow.

If all else fails I'll try uninstalling IE7.. how do I get back IE6?

Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Is this the right place to
discuss this issue. I would be tempted to call microsoft to resolve
this
issue but am currently traveling in Ecuador for an extended period. Is
there
a non 800 toll free number to call for Microsoft support?
