Moderators Andavari Posted August 6, 2006 Moderators Share Posted August 6, 2006 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eldmannen Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 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.
