An incompatibility with Microsoft’s newest browser (IE7) has been communicated to Computing & Information Services (CIS) by the distributors of the applications. This incompatibility will affect the performance of many applications. Some applications, such as Banner, will not function correctly and may produce errors.

CIS strongly recommends clients using these applications NOT update to the IE7 Browser. Moreover, it is extremely important these clients download the IE7 Install Blocker, which prevents users from receiving automatic updates and installation from Microsoft by way of automatic updates.
