Strange - I only have one optional update available.

Good to know MS are so hard at work.

I had 10 total updates which included one optional one, Windows 7 64 bit.  Have not found or seen any problems.  

13

They seem to do 'rolling' update rollouts, which stands to reason.

Note - 59 vulnerabilities patched does not necessarily mean there are 59 separate updates. Also, the number of updates depends upon what OS you are using and what browser version.

Excellent point. Thanks for clarifying that for others. 

!4 for me + 2 optionals I never take.... Bing Bar and Bing Desktop as I have neither need or want for either.

7 here, win7 - 64bit, took less than 2 minutes.

Damned patches... well one of them at least.

Downloaded and installed them; rebooted as requested; shutdown once I'd ascertained it'd start and went out to do stuff.

Did stuff and came home; put stuff away and tried to boot PC.... PC booted, black screen... fechen updates.

Restarted in Safe Mode; removed updates, PC restarted with intact desktop.... fechen updates.

9 updates here. The optional ones I leave alone. Don't need no 'bing'. Lol

59?

The right answer is 42.

While the answer is always 42...9 for me plus a driver update. Thanx, MS.

I've not been able to find any info on which patch is responsible for my black screen so I may have to install each of them individually until I reproduce the problem... unless somebody here knows which one so I may exclude it from the next installation.

Anyone?
