Microsoft Updates! Grr!

    I'm going to absolutely screw with Microsoft, even though I really can't.

    It used to be they updated every so often, like a week or two, I'm getting updates every day now and they are seriously lagging down my computer? Frustrated ain't the word! I am getting a new computer but seriously, my computer isn't that slow when they aren't running.

    Anyone got the same problem!? :confused::mad:

    Nope :-\

    Try going onto the website and running updates until it tells you there's none available? Have you recently reinstalled the OS or something?

    I also don't have any such problem. Last time time it prompted an update was two weeks ago...

    Causes:

    1. New PC
    2. Haven't updated in a while
    3. They are playing with you, only you ^^

    I turn off updates entirely since most are worthless, if something is REALLY important it will be posted on blogs not just secretive to the Microsoft Updates page.

    I think updating is good, as long as you have fast connection.

    I scare after you turn off MS update, your computer will get trojan horses. Like tha ants getting to your sweet when you leave it outside the fridge.
