Mine stopped updating ages ago. Now even the antivirus program
(Security Essentials) refuses to update its virus definitions. The
machine continues to work all right.

W7 32 bit pro is still updating (if you call 180meg. downloads an update!)

In Firefox, I find screens can *jump* when reading BBC news articles. I
assumed this was further content being added above where I had reached.


I notice that when looking at both Richer Sounds and J-L websites.

Annoying if I am trying to select a 'brand' only to find that the screen
'jumps' and I have selected something else.
