12 patches on XP Pro SP3 less annoy-ware like .Net Framework ( opinion ) ..

Follow this if you like, folks *may* post back what they've patched, re-boot issues, etc.

I put them all on including the net framework
net framework (both) needed reboots
the security updates also needed reboots

I do the security updates separately in a group
then I do the office ones in a group
I did the netframework 1.1 by itself (it needed a reboot)
I did the netframework 2.1 by itself (it needed a reboot)

so far on 3 computers- 2 xp pro sp3- one vista
these are only my own so far
I have 1 vista, 1 windows7 rc, and 3 xp pros of my own to do
besides my clients computers

No problems from these 3 computers so far

Robin, I know how you feel...I had 13 updates, 41.4 Megs of download (not
including Office) , and a lot of wasted time on all of those .Net updates.
No problems on install and reboot. Only 7 machines to go...can't wait to go
through it all over again next month.

have done 22 computers so far ranging from vista to xp pro and home
no problems with updates

I had 11 updates, and it went really fast. Just a quicky reboot and
wala...all done!!!

I had some trouble with the DotNet updates on some machines.

On one, I had to uninstall everything related to that specific version of
dotnet--it was 1.1--and then reinstall it from direct downloads.

Otherwise, pretty smooth.
