Do I need to tell you that the Windows Update Agent has an API and is
scriptable so there's the possibility to perform an online update with
just VBScript?
What's this "live update" BTW? I've heard of "live messenger" and some
more "live something" but not yet "live update".-)
And you can take your net-nanny top posting crap and put it where the sun
don't shine.
Your wording is even nastier than your top posting crap.
If I'd forget my education I might be tempted to say "Geh doch dahin wo
der Pfeffer wächst".
