You leave your VMWare instance running an important job… Only to come back in the morning to find “Your computer has been updated” You… Took it upon… YOURSELF… to stop… MY ENTIRE WORLD… ARGH!

Needless to say the options for automatic update have been changed.  You would think that it would be fairly trivial to put in some checks for basic courtesy… just a list of conditions that should have to be met before microsoft should allow themselves to think that the PC is clear enough to reboot.  The first alarm should be *OH LOOK I’M RUNNING UNDER HEAVY LOAD” DUH!
