I just went to the link. It made me install an update installer first, and then it had 69!!!!!!!!! so-called "high-priority" updates for me to install.

One of these was Internet Explorer 8. IMO it's not high priority to have version 8 over version 7, so I unchecked that box. I opened a few others at random but ultimately just let the other 68 install.

Then I went back to see what else was there - and it had 4 more "high priority" ones to install, also 9 optional ones. I may do most of the optional ones later, but what annoys me is that it doesn't seem to notice that I have the latests graphics driver. It's telling me I need it. Also, I updated my sound card driver a few months back, and it's giving me an update from last February. So I wonder how many of these I really needed, seeing as how I installed updates only a few months ago. Still, if a new security update was there, it sure got installed.

(My complaints are directed at Microsoft. I'm still grateful for your post!)
