Trouville, for what its worth, my friendly computer repairman told me a while back to never ever have anything to do with the automatic Windows live updates - he said that they were the cause re my machine throwing a wobbly, which cost 50 quid to fix.
And here was I thinking that because they came from Microsoft, they were all kosher....
 
Thats what i thought!I was really annoyed with the update.

I couldent stop it and i was useing quite slow wi-fi connections sitting on a cement post it made life slow and impossiable to email via yahoo! That kept timeing out.Or when not just wouldent go to compose to reply!!

It made me wonder if microsoft will add "updates" that make XP begine to fail that we all have to buy the new vista??!!
