So, how much more have they "stolen" from Firefox?

InPrivate Browsing: Keep Internet Explorer 8 from adding any sites you visit to Browsing History with InPrivate Browsing. Now you can shop for that special gift with confidence knowing your family won’t accidentally find out.

Yeah, I'm sure that is the main reason for people to hide their browsing history...

Usually you'd have to explicitly check the option of showing "Betas" in the Windows Update.
It would be unusual for M$ to forcibly install betaversions. Just think of all the sues for damages of their professional customers.
EDIT: But to say it with the slogan of a sportswear manufacturer

It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

IE 8.0 Beta 2 on WU
Quote:
If you have Automatic Updates turned on, Windows Update will automatically download IE8 Beta 2 and notify you when it is ready for install.  You’ll then have the option to proceed with or postpone installation.
