I already covered all that in my post a couple of days ago. ;-) -Clint God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://www.OrpheusComputing.com http://www.ComputersCustomBuilt.com http://Computer-Hardware-Sales-Consumer-Electronics-Sales.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Grossman" Thank you, Sue. Does that mean that if I DON'T read about it on these list, then I SHOULD install it? I'm not all that willing to install every "harmless" patch that Microsoft produces. PC Works can tell me if it's harmful. I want to go a step further. I want to know whether it's GOOD or NECESSARY for my system. How do I get that information?
