lol...
i disable "automatic updates", be that my OS or any app in general... to me, "automatic updates" are nothing but "phone home beacons", lol...
guess the way i see, everybody and their mother knows that the second Tuesday of every month is "Update Tuesday", how hard can it be to MANUALLY update every second Wednesday or so
in fact, now that i think about it, my nLite'ed OS installation doesn't even have that "service" installed, nor the "security center" as Comodo and avast are installed alongside my XP...
just a couple of pennies
