| | Re: A Windows Vista Security Tip: Use Windows Update to Update all Microsoft Programs on your Computer Based upon your instructions: 2. Type Windows Update and hit Enter I typed 'Windows Update' into an MS Word 2007 document and nothing happened for the longest time. Totally frustrated, I looked for somewhere else to type. I gotten lucky picking IE7, I guess, because up popped the the Vista 'Windows Update' window, which had instructions to use the WU icon in the start menu. Fortunately, it auto started WU, so I didn't have to waste time looking myself. 3. Click Get Updates for More Products My WU window does not have that, so I clicked on 'Check for Updates' for want of something better to do. 4. Accept Agreement I didn't get an agreement to accept. Very disappointing.. 5. Install To install or not to install; that is the question <tokjad@gmail.com> wrote in message news:1178981030.962817.324570@e51g2000hsg.googlegroups.com... > Steps to Enable Windows Update to Update all Microsoft Programs on > your Computer: > http://www.vistaarticles.com/article...-your-Computer > -- Mike Hall MS MVP Windows Shell/User http://msmvps.com/blogs/mikehall/ |

| | Re: A Windows Vista Security Tip: Use Windows Update to Update all Microsoft Programs on your Computer I took a quick look at that and another page and see the same vague information. So it is almost useless to a beginner and the experienced are more likely to know the information. Since the pages are full of ads, this seems more like spam than anything else. Similar spam by him is on other newsgroups. -- Jupiter Jones [MVP] http://www3.telus.net/dandemar http://www.dts-l.org "Mike Hall MVP" <mikehall@mvps.org> wrote in message news:OvqR34KlHHA.4624@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... > Based upon your instructions: > > 2.

| | Re: A Windows Vista Security Tip: Use Windows Update to Update all Microsoft Programs on your Computer Useless and a waste of time. Information was not existent and the adds where over whelming. Even a halfwit could see this for what it is, SPAM.
