For those of us who've had to re-install our OS and phone Microsoft to activate their copy of Windows, the beta might not install because of a problem with WGA. Pretty crappy if you ask me. If this makes it into the final version of IE7, Microsoft will be shutting out a lot of legitimate copies due to a broken validation system.
