With respect, I must ask ... then how behind are you with Microsoft security updates?
I find it hard to believe in these times that anyone who cares about the security of their systems and bothers to post in these forums would want to tell us that they do not accept Microsoft automatic updates. Do you also decline avast automatic VPS updates too?
Why not try applying all Microsoft security updates as a first step?
alanrf what arrogance
With respect I am appalled that you assume that because someone doesn't automatically allow Windows updates to download and install is not security conscience, as i stated i have it to notify me of any critical updates, (which then i go to their web site and download.)
I am fully updated with all Microsoft updates as if you assume for some reason i"m not, is strange why i would have SP3 installed.
Over the years i have tried to learn all about computers and i will admit i struggle a lot.
But i have always installed all critical updates and might i say most of the optional ones as well.
I am so upset i now do not care if i get a answer to my question about crypt32.
If i answered what i really felt i would be banned.
IF the moderators feel they need to remove this so be it, but i would find that hypercritical if they do.
Also your remark about avast is also out of line.
With respect alanrf if you take offense at this i really don't care.
Cheers
