RE: [ActiveDir] Patches installed during power failure???

Check the settings for automatic updates in the My Computer properties. If the system is configured to automatically install and prompt for reboot than yes this sounds about right.   --Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED] Payton on the web! www.wpcp.org   v - 773.534.0034 x135 f - 773.534.8101 From: Douglas M.

I have automatic updates set to automatically download and notify me when ready. I had not installed the patches from the October and November critical patch set. I assumed that these patches were downloaded and ready to install, so I decided to run windows update to install any patches that may have not been downloaded and install any that were downloaded. Windows update found no patches that needed installed, and I have nothing downloaded for install. I then decide to check add/remove programs to see what patches are intalled....and ALL the patches from October and November were installed. I am the only one with access to the machines. The only thing I can think is that they were somehow installed on a power failure (a circuit was popped) about a week ago. Does this make any sense? Is this a possibel scenario? I cant see any other way that they would have been installed. Any insight would be highly appriciated.
