When you are connected to the Internet, Windows Vista Update automatically notifies you through a pop-up message or icon in the notification area when critical updates are available. When you see the Windows Vista Update message, allow the updates to download to your system. If you update the system weekly, or even monthly, the time required for download is minimal. To configure Automatic Updates: 1 Click the Windows Start Button on the taskbar. 2 Click Control Panel. 3 Click Security. 4 Click Windows Update. 5 Click Change settings. 6 Select the desired configuration: Install updates automatically (recommended) - This is the default setting, and it enables you to specify a day and time to automatically download and install recommended updates. Download updates but let me choose whether to install them Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them Never check for updates (not recommended) - This option makes the computer more vulnerable to security threats and performance problems and is not recommended. 7 Click OK. Installing critical security updates CAUTION: To reduce the risk of information damage or loss from security breaches and computer viruses, install all critical updates from Microsoft as soon as you receive an alert. Additional updates to the operating system and other software may have become available after the computer was shipped. Download all available updates and install them onto the computer. 44 Getting Started (features vary by model)
