> no longer offers a way to disable Windows Updates
While you may be in the 0.01% of users who can intelligently determine which updates to install, consider all the botnets and preventable security exploits that exist because people disabled windows updates.
The entire Windows anti-virus industry thrives mostly because of unpatched machines (also because of earlier Windows insecure by default settings).
So while I don't use Windows, I'm very glad that Windows is forcing the masses to update.
