| 194919 | 2003-12-07 09:59:00 | Thanks, tweake. Now I won't have anymore unwelcome visitations from Microsoft. I don't care much for it's Outlook Express as a matter of preference, and there's very little updating they would do now for Win 98 which I want to stick to. However, as I said before, the experience has been rewarding as I did discover the little corner they have for driver updates which I might have otherwise missed. |

If you do use Outlook Express and/or Internet Explorer it would still pay to keep them up to date, especially Internet Explorer, as Microsoft fixes security holes in the updates. |

| 194921 | 2003-12-07 22:09:00 | I have had many problems with repeated automatic updates, so I just visit the URL they talk about it and you can manually download the update, save it to your drive and install the file, after that, the repeating ended. | Kame (312) | ||
