Hell, I lost track of them.
Over the summer this drone was spreading his ignorance in a couple MS
newsgroups. I originally thought it was STAN, <I forget which nic he was
using then>, but this guy actually creates readable posts, and his clock is
right. Could still be his brother, though.

These people take up our time and effort and we would be better off to
ignore them completely, as most of the participants here do already.

"Don't pick a fight with an old man.
If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you."
The only thing that it shows are the update name, but no information, even
if I double-click I do not get any information, it even tells me that there
is a few "optional" update on the main screen, but when I view the name of
the updates, I do not see any of the optional, only the "obligated" update

Can you post a screen shot of this somewhere? It seems to me that we aren't
going to get any further without actually seeing what you are seeing...
I have just sent a reply to this message in HTML, so that the image could

This is a non-binary newsgroup. Your picture won't make it.
