Speaking of the truth:

 

Fact: Windows is more prone to exploits than Linux.

 

Fact: No Linux boxes form a part of herd bots. Millions of Windows boxes

do and that's why we get so much spam.

Your promoting Windows does a big disservice to the Internet community

and you should be ashamed of yourself.

Why do you waste your time with that clueless nincompoop?

 

And I totally agree with you, everything is also updated automatically

on my Windows Vista, including all the drivers and the things that you

already mentioned.

Java is not. Flash is not. Adobe Reader is not. Firefox is not.

Thunderbird is not, etc., etc., etc. If you get your hardware drivers

from Windows or Microsoft Updates, you're asking for trouble. You should

go to the hardware manufacturer's web site for those updates that are

NOT automatic.

Those products, not included with the OS, are updated by their own

use/connection by default. You have to tell them NOT to update to stop

their getting automatic updates. I've not had to manually update any of

those products on any computer under our control, they all download and

install with a single click.

 

The MS updates install on their own, no action needed.

And with few exceptions, even the hardware updates work. The same is

true for Linux, I've had kernel updates render Linux unbootable, same

for Windows updates.

 

Now, keep spreading your BS, you seem to have a LOT of it and like to

spew it, showing that you are just here to try and show your ANT-MS side

and that you don't really understand or use Windows.

Still clueless - all of the programs you've mentioned provide automatic

updates and downloads unless you disable that function.

Um, if you don't open them, they won't tell you squat. With Ubuntu, you

don't need to open them to be informed that there is an update. Get it yet?

If you plan to accept all the updates, true. I, for one, don't want

WGA/N, WMP 11 or IE7 on my computers.

False (again). I just opened Spybot and no notification. I had to

*check* for updates and there were some. Same for Ad Aware. Same for

Spywareblaster or Spywareguard. Same for Java. Same for Adobe Reader.

Same for Flash. Same for *most* programs. The hardware manufacturer's

*never* tell you if there's an update for your video card, BIOS, audio

card, etc.

In my opinion your post is off topic and was crafted to cause a controversy.

This sure seems like trolling to me. The best trolls use the truth as a

basis for their posts. They are still trolls and more interested in

generating controversy than actually helping anyone.

If you notice, I didn't say anything about SpyBot, or spywareblaster or

spywareguard - they are not needed and don't get used on my systems.

 

As for Java it loads an updater unless you disable it - so, it will

check for updates - yours must be very old and exploitable if you don't

have the versions that auto-update.

 

As for Adobe, flash, and most other programs, UNLESS YOU DISABLE THE

UPDATE CHECK FUNCTION, they will check for updates on their own, no

manual click needed. Now, you might be running a very old version that

doesn't update or check, but that means you're not current and that you

still don't know what you're talking about.

 

As for hardware/BIOS/Audio - seems strange that you bring that up, they

also don't tell you there are updates for Linux, the community has to

make them available for inclusion in your "automatic" update that you

claim is automatic.

So you get them automatically. With Windows you don't.

Then you also have the update function that was included, so did you

disable it or are you telling lies again?

Wrong, you only get them if a member of the community collects them. The

vendors don't make them "automatically" available though the different

update services....
