is it a client-based fix or a server-based fix? (search-function doesn't work in steamboard forums so i didn't find until now)
if its a client-based fix you could forget it - and server-admins will have to decide if they would kill their servers with custom maps due removing fast-download or to loose players with IE7. A server-based fix (if possible) is mandatory or a client-based fix which could be provided with a regular steam-update that the user has no manual work to do. IE7 will be installed automatically through auto-update soon on WinXP Clients, so there should be a fix asap.
