OK, hold it!
Diane and others like her are not part of Microsoft and they're not here
getting paid.
You're upset. We get it. Don't take it out here. She has tried helping
you but no one offering *free* assistance needs your attitude.
bill, diane, et al.....
I have no idea who you are, whom you work for, or why your defending a failed product here.
I came here for help, I got accused of finger pointing, and turned it back to diane, and now I'll turn it back to you!
my "attitude" is a direct result of being told I didn't install this product correctly, can you guess where you can hide that premise?
my "attitude" is also a direct result of the categorization of this software as failed because it requires re-installation as finger pointing! sorry I upset your boss, the one that doesn't pay you, but that is the definition of failed.
I don't know how to categorize someone whom works/volunteers for a failed software company? could you explain why it is you have such alliance to a company that doesn't pay you?
Diane, not Microsoft, has posted a lot of this information based on the
collective experiences here in these newsgroups and elsewhere. When she
says you should examine what *you* might have done then she's not
accusing you of anything. She's merely saying that, from experience,
she's learned folks have often been the cause of their own problems.
In this case, you never responded as to whether or not you read her
article and have possibly used an application such as Monolingual to
remove languages. That's an innocent thing for users to do to save disk
space but it breaks the Microsoft updaters. Still, it's the user who
caused the problem.
funny how you turned that one around bill.
yes, I did the install correctly, you feel OK now?
still can't get an update without a full install? just something I want to do, keep in contact with my install disk, yeah right!
I'm guessing you monolingual comment means that microsoft doesn't believe it's a burden for a user to do a full clean install of the operating OS in order for their products to work properly? guess what drove most users to mac.....
Diane is not here to defend Microsoft and she is not here to say what's
"acceptable" and "unacceptable". She provides answers and solutions that
will work for most people. She's making no guarantees that you'll like
them. She's only telling you *from experience* what has worked for others.

I'm surprised everyday at what people will and won't do, in this case not for money.
sorry bill, diane, your most recent remark "most people" is yet another veiled attempt to suggest that me, the user is doing something to make this great piece of software fail? this is what lead to "attitude" as you call it. face it, the update portion of this software is failed. perhaps you can't be that objective?
