As always, thank you Melissa!
Nine Critical updates installed here! 
I figured what the heck, why wait? 
(XP Pro SP2)- Installations went smooth and no issues...(at least none that I'm aware of yet).
Thanks again.

Office Updates Also, Office updates.
Is it me or are Office Updates slower to come out (after Windows). I just updated and then I saw more updates not shown before. |

said by PunkGod:I thought a performance update was supposed to be included in this. I think you are referring to these 2 performance patches for Windows Vista:
»[Vista] Update for Windows Vista (KB938979)
KB938979
KB938194
It appears that they didn't make it in to the Windows Update process yet. Check out the link above if you want to install as standalone separate patches.

Minneapolis, MN | Updated and rebooted to see disabling driver signing no longer works. Great now I cannot use Core Temp, RivaTuner, & ATiTool. Instead of giving the user the option on what they install on their machine, it seems M$ is taking away that ability. |

I've only installed three (two today and one tomorrow, apparently) -- KB921503, KB938127, & KB938829.
I still have all my driver signing options available on XP. |

Minneapolis, MN | If a solution doesn't arise soon I'm going back to XP x64. IMO the whole driver signing is pointless and just a way to get more money into their pockets. |
