Microsoft update translation
I loaded Microsoft Update to see if there were any new security updates to load. Listed in High-priority updates is, "Windows Genuine Advantage Notification - The Windows Genuine Advantage Notification tool notifies you if your copy of Windows is not genuine. If your system is found to be a non-genuine, the tool will help you obtain a licensed copy of Windows." I'm not quite sure how that qualifies as High-priority, but I'm not going to load it.
Loosely translated, "If you pirated Windows, and you're a complete moron, install this so we can be absolutely sure you get annoyed with "Genuine Advantage" notifications enough to purchase a legitimate copy." I guess it's a good thing I got a free, legitimate copy from school because one day I'll probably mistakenly install that update when I'm not paying attention.
