Boy it is really getting to be a pain-in-the-'you-know-what' to keep getting
all these d---n updates each week..

How could Microsoft have that many holes in its operating system????

Each time my computer downloads the updates it takes a long, long time and
then the computer shuts down and restarts.

After that, in most cases there is a complete slowdown with my system and
lasts for a day or two before it comes back to normal.. What the devil is
happening? It is really annoying...

I have a Vista Ultimate 64bit OS, 6GB memory and usually an 8 to 20MB fast
throughput.

Is this happening with Win7 as well? Really frustrating... Glad Microsoft
didn't manufacture cars or airplanes....

It's a situation we'll all have to put up with until they can find some
software engineers that are absolutely perfect and don't make any
mistakes at all in their coding. Based on the assets available in the
world currently, I don't think this will happen anytime in the near future!

Of course, if you're perfectly faultless you could go to work for
Microsoft and eliminate any of these faults from occurring in the first
place!

Where have you found any automobiles or airplanes that were built
perfectly without any defects at all?

If you open the Windows Update window, and click Change settings, you can
have updates set to download, but install them when you want.

Set it to manual and choose when you want to update.

If you are doing things so well - you wouldn't need the updates anyway - you
would have the system protected and working fine anyway, right. ;-)

My mother's computer has been malfunctioning because of the updates as
well...

It keeps endlessly downloading and it never completes...

It totally slows down the computer.

I set windows updates to off... a solution does not seem available.

Also on my own system I always have it off which is a very good thing.

Then when I feel the need I update my system....

At least once per two months.

Bye,
Skybuck.
