Because there is ample evidence if you care to search for them. M$ updates
have become a drain on users systems since September 2009. The sooner these
useless updates are stopped the better it would be for everybody - least for
Microsoft Valuable Pigs.

Thankfully it doesn't affect me because I haven't had any updates since SP3
and I have no intention to change this position in the near future.

I think you are correct....overheating appears to be the issue I need to
address and backing up is a great suggestion. The damage may be beyond
reasonable repair $$.

Thanks
