Another big Patch Tuesday

Quote:

August will be another substantial patch month for Microsoft, with the vendor releasing 12 security bulletins next Tuesday to fix holes in its Windows OS (operating system) and the Office productivity suite.

Too bad IE7 wont be one of them. :(

My dial-up modem is weeping, I seriously need a high-speed connection just to keep up with the OS updates let alone everything else. Damn Windows.

It's of no surprise that there's more patches, actually was expecting it.

lol just wait for SP3.

You will be downloading for days. :P

Ever since MS started releasing updates only on tuesdays I turned automatic updates off. I just check the first tuesday of every month now.

Well maybe a day. This time round I'll probably just order the CD even if it costs some money.

Ive got mine set to OFF too + notify me :) also UNinstalled WGA - maybe NOT completely - found part of it in Manage Add Ons list :blink: + disabled it :mellow:

hey - thanx for tips on updates = I'll try that too

My Automatic Update setting is set to "Notify me but don't automatically download or install them."

It makes so it automatically checks for new updates but don't download or install anything without my approval.

I have also uninstalled WGA.
