After I posted here I saw this same topic in the Microsoft forum and realized it is a new version. I'm happy to say I now have version 2.

EDIT: What I meant is, what is the main purpose of the installer. I have the previous version installed, but have no clue what it was for.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13439532 Wed, 18 May 2005 17:24:27 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13439143 dadkins : Me too, but this is a new version... v2]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13439143 Wed, 18 May 2005 16:41:24 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13439116 Libra : I don't use automatic updates, but I got the Windows 3.1 Installer as part of the April '05 Windows Updates.

I think my autoupdates are set from anywhere 2P.M. to 5P.M.

Since I still think it's unsafe to leave a PC on 24/7 so I never do it, always shutdown before I go to sleep at night. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13437750 Wed, 18 May 2005 13:50:45 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13437570 jack b : Yup. I found it sitting there, this morning, waiting to be downloaded.
Installed and rebooted with no apparent ill effect.
