Hi
On my home PC (WinXP SP3 admin rights) I have it set up to download any
updates in the background & then when I go to close down it installs
those updates before auto turn off.
At my place of work (big network) our IT department claims this option
can't be used because we don't have admin rights & we have to do a
reboot after we first turn on PC's in the morning. (v. annoying).
Is this correct?
They're running windows server but I'm not sure which version.
What worries me is that they thought it _was_ installing on shut down,
as they all have admin rights!!
Their checking procedures must be piss poor.
They can't even guarantee that the updates are installing correctly such
is their lack of understanding.
Hope you can help clear this up for me.
Cheers
Dave F.
