I woke up the morning to find that overnight my computer had updated itself which meant a restart. Which meant Word shut down and all of my editing was lost. Why it did that I don't know as I'm sure you need to click to okay an update but no, Silver decided to be independent last night. Guess I'll just have to start again. An addition to that story, reading friendsfriends just now I read someone else's computer did that overnight as an automatic Windows update. I'm not at all pleased that Windows can update when they like.

I need to get Corey's presents wrapped sometime soon too. He breaks up from school tomorrow which means things must be wrapped by then. The problem is finding them from where they've been stashed away. I'm so organised man, I can hardly stand myself *g*

Now I'd better get on with the editing, again. I'll also send out many good vibes and hugs to the flist, so many people need them right now.

Windows update is a strange thing, it always insists that I download and install service pack 2, but I'm still refusing to do this. And it sucks that this happened to your story.

I downloaded the service pack 2. I gave in because I was getting pop ups all the time saying I needed to update but really I wish I hadn't.

I've heard of a few people that had an automatic update last night and it's just wrong. I mean I lost some editing which isn't that big a deal but if it had happened when I was writing I would have wanted to kill someone.

As much as I like the automatic update telling me when they've got a new update or bugfix, it's just wrong that Windows actually downloads and installs the update without you approving. That's just wrong. *grrr*

I heard so many bad things about SP2 that I didn't download and install it yet. I want to wait until it's "save" to use it.
