    Am I the only person that hates this? I bought a perfectly legitimate copy of Windows, and now I have to be "authenticated" in order to take advantage of certain types of updates, which I wouldn't need anyway if they hadn't created such a terrible product in the first place. Is there some way possible to update without going through this intrusive process? Thanks in advance for your reply.
