   You didn't answer my question.  Do you or do you not have any of your =
systems configured for automatic updates?  For any answer, why?

   Now if you are question usage within Microsoft based on any of the =
bogus speculation you may have read, you are asking the wrong questions. =
 If you are just trying to point out that people responsible for =
vulnerable systems were irresponsible, well, duh.

  Ain't my dogfood. It is MS marketing's dogfood. i.e. If MS marketing =
bod gets up & says "Well those users didn't apply the patches
so...." = then users can ask "So how come you got hit because of

       Windows Update is not SQL Server Update.  Windows Update is only =
automatic if the administrator chooses to make it so.

       How about all your computers?  Do they automatically update =
themselves?  For the cases where you have the option, do you have it = enabled?
