I'm still running Win 7 and only needed one reboot.  I didn't do the IE 10 upgrade/update though.  :sun:

Did all the updates, had to reboot twice in Windows 7, and only once in Windows 8.  Odd thing though, I have an old Windows XP machine I am rebuilding and it had no updates required at all.

Not sure their supporting it, Tom.

A couple of WinXP VMs at work had at least 4 patches available. Looks like XP still has support until April 2014 :- http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/end-support-help

On XP I had 2 or 3 plus the malicious software tool.  (???)

 

I got curious so fwiw they were:

KB890830 Win Malicious Software Removal Tool

KB2809289 Cumulative Security Update for IE8

KB2807986 Security Update for Windows XP

As far as WC is concerned, IE10 doesn't work well on it's native OS. I'm afraid to try it on 7.

 

Wiz did, and his IE has been fubar ever since.

On W7 works perfectly... including WC, at least for me. :)

I'm going to give IE10 another try. It can't be any more messed up than IE9 is on this site. Only WC seems to have the problems. It looks like the site was mixed in with lots of code, tossed into a blender and then thrown at the screen. o_O
