Microsoft updates

[findtim]

just a general warning for MS users, microsoft have been INSISTING on doing updates and rebooting our computers, they give you the option of delaying it for 4 hours......... twice........ then do not ask again ! and simply shut down your computer !!!
i'm sure its something you may be able to turn off but most people do not know how.
i was half way through a client email response today and my computer just shut down without warning, luck i save as i go.

just FYI

Interesting, as mine certainly does not do this and I often postpone it all day.
I'm on Windows 7 though so it may be a Windows 8 thing if that's what you're using?
