MS Security Updates
Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2003 09:31:05 -0700
Each time I reboot my PC, especially after it was off, I
get a "Security Update" message from MS regarding one of
their many patches. Only this time it keeps telling me I
need the 819696 MS Direct X patch. I tell it to install,
it does, then the next time(S) I reboot it's there
again. Why, and how do I remedy the situation.
