Getting Outlook Express 7 but not Internet Explorer 7
 

Because I need to test my websites with Internet Explorer 6.0, since it will
probably be around long enough that it is important to make sure sites work
on it, I have installed the utilities that prevent Automatic Updates from
automatically installing IE7 but still allow you to get all the other
automatic updates. However, because I do not develop tools/accessories for
Outlook Express, I do want to have the latest version of that. Is there any
way to unblock updates to Outlook Express without unblocking IE7? When I
have time, I will be looking at a free version of Microsoft Virtual PC to
see if it works well enough to allow me to have IE6 and IE7 installed, but I
don't care about having any version other than the latest for Outlook
Express. Is there a way to unblock OE and keep IE7 blocked? Thanks.

There is no Outlook Express 7. If you want a newer version of Outlook
Express, you'll have to get Windows Vista and use its successor called
Windows Mail.

Probably your best bet here is a virtual machine. They are a little slow but
are ideal for testing stuff.

Because there were multiple answers I'll add that this one's correct. You
have no reason to fear OE7. It doesn't and won't exist. *sigh* I don't like
it but that's how it goes.
