According to this post from Microsoft blog they will not push it to WSUS
until July 2009. Although I would still like to know how to block it when it
comes out in WSUS.

If your WSUS is configured to NOT auto approve every new updates, you won't
have to worry about it auto installing on all managed client machines. I'd
probably decline it when I see it on my WSUS.

Btw, the article says it:

- IE8 will not automatically install on machines. Users must opt-in to
install IE8.

and this

- We will release IE8 to WSUS in July 2009; it will be classified as an
Update Rollup and must be approved to install on groups of clients within
the organization.
