Windows 9x/ME don't have it either, if I'm not mistaken. But it's       reassuring to know that Microsoft don't try to kill old Windows.              > But if you're nervous, just set "Updates" to Notify, but not download       > or install -- this is how all my Windows systems are configured, then       > after support ends, turn it off.       >       > Stef              Yes, that's what I'm going to do.
