Good. And all the multi-megabyte patches
you download overnight and apply them first thing in the
morning? You know, you need to stay current with the
patches.

Nevertheless, your point is that the the fault is with the
non-technical user who has no clue in how to keep his pc
uptodate. Interesting, but I thought people buy s/w that is
developed professionally by vendors so that THEY HAVE
THE GUARANTEE THAT it can meet their needs and it is
secure.

All the nice laundry list items you mentioned is
disingeneous and just a cheap attempt to show off.
Nevertheless, if you are stuck in the vicious cycle of re-re-
... -re-patchings reinstalls, and reboots, then enjoy your
wasted time. I guess you have plenty of free time wink
