Microsoft updates - Anonie
Posted: Nov 19, 2014
Just had a weird thing happen to me.
On Tuesdays they typically send out Microsoft updates which are usually to see if you have any kind of virus on your computer.
Usually, this only takes a few minutes to configure my computer and this time, I thought it never would stop. Honestly, it was at least an hour to configure my computer.
I think something is wrong. The only other thing I updated was Adobe Flash.
Anyway, it was weird and scary. Thought I was not going to be able to do anything like work, check e-mails, etc.
Anyone else have this happen to them?
They is Microsoft - Duh

The only person you succeeded in making look stupid, as was your obvious intent, was yourself.

Yep. Same thing happened to me. I updated earlier this evening, and it took, I bet, an hour and a half. I'm looking for a job, so it didn't keep me from working, just looking.

Backlog Updates -- What Are They For??? Jul 11, 2014Can anyone explain what good backlog reports are or what purpose they serve.

I had found a downloadable version of this for $39.99 a couple of months ago, but I didn't bookmark it and now can't find it.
