99% disagree. I dont want to get into a big debate about it, but many admin like myself would prefer to know exactly what end up getting installed on our systems. So I would suggest disabling it and apply patches as needed or selectively run it once or twice a month. The last thing I want is somewhat unknown changes being made to my system.

That's critical so you stay up to date and lessen the likelihood of your server being compromised. In the morning is a good time to have it check for them, like at 5AM in the server's time zone. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mason Cutner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, September 15, 2004 09:33 AM Subject: [hlds] Win2k3 services > -- > [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] > I have just got a new box and have windows 2003 server on it.
