      From: a.campanella@att.net              In the last week or two, my ThinkPad (built in 2005 with Windows XP) has all       of a sudden does this more than once a day. I changed the setting to stop       automatic restart (minutes countdown over several minutes to an unavoidable       restart). But now an enunciator pop-up still occurs, and I can't relegate it       to background. I eventually clear my many programs in use, and allow it. But       I CANNOT understand why it updates so very frequently. Any explanation and       how do I cut it back to once every few days?              I'm beginning to suspect that the NSA is watching me by hijacking the update       protocol to collect frequent data....              Ange              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
