There's only two this time (one critical one for MS Office 2000) and none for IE (for a change) so Windows Update may not find any patches to install for your system.

Yeah, I went home last night with half a dozen things open on my desktop in various states of completion thinking I could just pick back up today where I left off and found that the automatic updater went ahead and helpfully rebooted my computer for me.

Nothing was lost or even non-functional, I am not that careless, but finding where I left off in these different places is probably going to take time that I could have been using making progress.

That's why I turn all that crap off and just wait for a Trippy to tell me when to go grab updates.

Bad enough I need to wake up IE to download the patches, now the update site is bitching because I have automatic updates turned off, along with a couple other 'services' I don't want.  Damned Microsoft Cockholsters.
