I lost this ETA, but will courageous try again:
If you are using WMP 10 and you get a notificaltion of a puny update (less than a meg, less than a minute), run for your life screaming! Actually, it's an update to install WMP 11!. It is horrid and has the most uber-Draconian DRM. I have not been able to run it since being ensnared and fear loss of files - there are reports that it deletes 'non-DRM compliant' files (mp3 and wmv, etc.). Uninstalling it is also not easy. Some note that you can only go back to WMP 9 and can't get back to 10. What a crock. Heed....
C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the
foot. C++ makes it harder, but when you do, you blow your whole leg
off.
