This is to say those of you who ordered the free Security Update will get a tidy wee package containing 2 CD's - shortly if not yet...?

Haven't played them yet, as too busy, but I see one is an AntiVirus & Firewall CD " free for one year."

Run Adaware after you have done so becos' it leaves a couple of presents in the form of registry entries.

223381 2004-03-18 01:14:00 I have heard of other Auckland people who got their present yesterday so it appears that the lucky ones are either at the northern end of the country or the southern end with those in the middle destined to wait. :-) Fire-and-Ice (3910)
223382 2004-03-18 08:07:00 Got mine yesterday, haven't opened it yet, cos not sure what updates to install. I live near Christchurch. supergran (108)
223383 2004-03-19 06:59:00 I'm in Tauranga... I'm still waiting for mine.

However I did find that when Microsoft have sent me stuff before (I think usually via DHL from the States) I've received mine as much as a week after people I know who live in other centres.

223387 2004-03-19 11:20:00 Maybe they are sending by first letter of surname, in which case I have a long wait, as usual. Mine is 'W'. zqwerty (97)
223388 2004-03-19 12:42:00 I received mine the other day.

For some reason I was under the impression that I would be receiving every single Microsoft update ever released. Don't ask where I got that idea from, or why I thought they could even fit all of those on a few CDs.

Still, it's got a good few hundred MB of updates and software.
