John, It is good that you have it set up to ask before install. I subscribe to several newsletters that have issued warnings about botched updates from M$ that they recommend one should not install unless one suffers from a particular problem. Unfortunately, M$ is not known for thoroughly testing their patches before releasing them to the public. So more than one patch has been issued to repair problems created by prior patches.

It checks for updates automatically and offers a choice of "install automatically", "Ask before install", and "jump off a bridge". It works very well. I have all my systems set up to download and then ask before install. Not sure why I do that as I always just install them anyway. At any rate, my computers are always up to date. John W.
