    I was wondering why the last 2 releases would not install but error-ed about invalid path. Thanks!

    "UpdatusUser"

    After some looking around in my user folder and then on the net, I found hat NVidia actually installs its own user in the User folder. I was trying to find anything about that here on MDL, but find nothing...

    First, at all, I would include all Nvidia site into the Firewalls Block List! After that, I would just download the drivers manually and modify those 'Packages' for my personal use.

    And that applies to all downloads from sites which a known for their bad behavior!
