High priority updates!

So Microsoft, in addition to
http://news.com.com/Microsoft+tags+IE+7+high+priority+update/2100-7350_3-6098500.html?tag=nefd.lede

I don't understand how MS gets away with this. "Security Updates" are
for security updates, not random software Microsoft would prefer that
you ran. In the long run, this policy has a detrimental effect on
security by making users not trust the auto-update feature to leave
their system the way they last saw it.

Those of you on MS-love-fests "Oh, they're so much better now - wow
they're spending lots of money on security consultants just like us"
should keep this sort of gibberish in mind during your next fawning
weblog/mailing list post.
