Are there any problems with enabling automatic updates by default? Most users don't care about updates to the point that they never install them. And even if they would open the update manager, they would more likely just install all updates than select the updates they want. Hell, that's the way I work! How many people actually benefit from any interaction with the update manager? The way Microsoft does it, is that it asks (enabled by default) to install updates on shutdown. I don't know how that would be better than completely automatic updates.
