Unfortunately, I've read that a great number of people have fallen for the

since when has microsoft EVER passed around an email??? to uptdate ANYTHING?
I thought that was what their update site was for. I have yet to download
anything for microsoft unless from their update site.... you get the notice
shield with the presentation of whats next to patch and I always go
persoanlly to the update website ...never enywhere else.
