    Exclamation Windows Update

    By now you probably already have the update reminder down in the corner. But if you don't Microsoft just released some new updates so go and get em!


    ***BTW why don't you have it set to auto update? If you have broadband you have no excuse IMHO.

    http://www.techweb.com/wire/story/TWB20040413S0009 has some good info on this set of updates.

    Seriously people, its only 2.7 meg for the last 4 patches. Just get it patched, and be done with it. The more computers left open, the more worms like Blaster will circulate. Do you really want MORE SPAM in your email? Just FIX IT.

    Phalk, i pretty much said the same thing in another thread. The sooner the patches are applied, the less we have to deal with the i have a shutdown, worm problem. These are are preventable by just patching your OS.

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure Isus was banned a while back...somewhere around christmas maybe? You could search the user database if you cared enough.

    Thanks Phalk, and the freezing is going to happen, as Microsoft is being hammered so hard that at times the site is freezing. So just keep trying. It is so bad that my firewall asked me 5 times if it was ok for them to connect to me. Damm i am one parinoid fucker, as i never check dont ask again in the firewall. It did finally update.
