    Greetings: I couldn't think of any other place to post this question. I have a PC system here running Windows XP-Pro. Some weeks ago, it notified me that it had downloaded an update and asked if I would like to install it before shutting down. Verily, I replied "Sure". Next day, same thing. After the 2nd and 3rd time, I started to wonder why MS was sending so many updates. Now, I realize that it is just installing the same update over and over again. :wtf: Anybody family with this particular endless loop? Any advice on what I can do about it? Thanks in advance. Mark

      How about "Operating Systems / Sysadmin" ?

        No, but I have a question for you? Where's the 180* twist that makes it a Mobius loop instead of the more mundane kind?

        -- Rules of thumb should not be taken for the whole hand.
