    Would be useful for slipstreamed disks.. and to put it out there that we have other browser options to choose from for the standard user but yea its mainly for EU users since they require giving users a choice or something like that

    Also does anyone know how to enable this on a non E version of windows 7? maybe regedit of some sort? it installed but it doesn't seem to do anything for me :(

    The choise window only appears when you have only ie installed, when you already have firefox, opera or whatever it does nothing.

    i actually slipstreamed it and i still didn't get any choice after installing into a VM so i assume it only works on specific versions

    Yep, you probably right because I've slipstremed KB and added Firefox addon and havent seen that window.
