| | Is this a REAL Update or something nasty? Hi all. Just turned on my PC and found this...  I am running NOD32 Antivirus, so I don't expect any surprises. However, this is a strange type of 'update' box isn't it? There is no explaination as to what I'm turning on, which makes me a bit nervous.  Anyone know what it is? |

| | It's ok. It means it's asking if you want updates from Microsoft Update besides Windows Update. ex: drivers for keyboard/mice, nic, etc You always have the option not to install it. |

| | It's perfectly safe, i had the same option about a week ago and it's not done any harm. As kpo6969 stated it's just updating from purely Windows Update to other software from Microsoft. |
