Well it's Microsoft patch Wednesday and it's a record of 13 in one release.
Most look worthy of loading, but it's going to take time to test all of them. I'd go for loading one at a time and give it a reboot between patches or one big hit and hope. I've been going for about 24hrs no with no issue, but you might have some problems this month. I'll see if I can get something up on two3five.com ASAP

Watch out for the .NET component update as I think it took out one of my machines today. Only a worry if you run servers so Mrs N can calm down from the cold sweat of worry

I put them all in, with no noticable problems aside from another deteriation in my spelling.
Nope don't think that. Patches are a pain in the arse which why companies pay my morgage to look at them. Only probelm is that there are so many combinations that advise in an open forum is difficult
