    We'd rather wait until these updates are pushed to Windows Update bro.. :rolleyes:

    To ensure updates are stable, and they suit the targeted system.. ;)

    Anyways.. lets keep praying all updates prove to be safe.. (a very unlikely event) :worthy:

    Respectively Pissa :p

    I see you are having the full power.. :eek:

    I have 32-bit Ultimate :mad:

    I wonder what would be of us after release of Service Pack for Windows 7 this summer.. extensive testing will be needed.. and validation might be released by that time.. :rolleyes:

    Yet as always.. I'm sure.. we'll overcome the odds.. or so I hope :worthy:

    Sincerely... ;)

    Indeed.. Basically, windows defender is a stand-alone application as far as I know.. Based on this info, its not linked by any means to windows activation, nor does it hinder the performance of your system (ie: No compatibility issues). Therefore, feel free to use it and install updates without any further rerference to the Center.. It's safe, and thats why its updates are not subjected to our tests in mean time.. However, as I've always said.. if circumstances go counterwise, and Windows Defender starts posing a risk to a PC's performance or state of activation.. then updates would indeed be tested and implemented into the center.. no worries :)

    For the time being, use it.. its safe..

    Best Regards ;)

    971033 was listed as an important update but was unchecked by default, wonder how long until they try to sneak it in.
