This is beautiful. I mean it. Sure it's all my fault, because I haven't booted Vista up for two, maybe three weeks. And in that time there have been - wait, wanna guess? - right! Updates! About a zillion. Also of course, my anti-virus (AVG Free) was out of date, because it's always out of date, every day.
SO, of course, Vista starts trying to download everything at once while all the time flashing a warning, "Your computer has multiple disastrously dangerous things going on and if you don't fix them right now it will explode," and then rebooting itself. So far it has rebooted three times, and required a password change once. And right now it's asking "do you trust this program?" (yes! damnit! yes!). The program it is asking me to trust is, apparently, well, it.
Continue! Arrrrrgh!
Suddenly, we're liveblogging a Windows boot. It's flashing! It's blinking! It's bitching! Wait! - it wants to install 14 more important updates. Important freaking updates!
OK, why not? What will happen to the other stuff that may or may not be happening? Why does the button next to me anti-virus software that says "Turn it on now" refuse to work? Will this be over by the end of the week?
What? That too?
If there was ever a reason to have two computers, Vista is it. Just make sure you only turn on one at a time.
