Running XP Pro. This sounds too easy to be true, so am asking the collective for their knowledge.

When I open device manager and right click then click 'Update drivers' and select 'Instal the software automatically' button, the two tv icons in my system tray light up as if it is searching the net for an updated driver. The lights dont stay on, and then I get the message: Could not find a better match ...

Question: Has it actually gone looking for a driver?

This sounds too easy so probably not true.

Cheers.

Wouldn't you love to be xxx.microsoft.com (a 'trusted' domain for Microsoft software) if you wanted to download and install malicious software on millions of computers? Guest (0)
