I've decided that I will post an entry every time Microsoft updates my Windows XP system.


I'm not going into gory details about what was updated.  I merely want to call attention to the number of times that it happens.


Got one last night with about 6 updates.  When was the last time you updated a Notes client?


No biggie.  Nothing to see here.  Please keep moving.

like the last guy said, patch Tuesday, and you should get one every Tuesday, and occasionally you'll get one on a random Thursday, depending on the major hole that was being exploited. To answer your semi-rhetorical question, I've updated my Notes client quite a bit lately, albeit due to version upgrades, but I did have a patch or two to apply while I was using some of the latest versions.

Dude. Pointless. As most of the rest of the world gets shovelled with XP patch shit same as you.

Buy a Mac.
