You did not receive an update notification from Microsoft! You
received a virus-laden email message from a devious imposter!

A devious imposter is "spoofing" Microsoft and attempting to deceive you
into installing a malicious VIRUS in your computer! Delete the VIRUS
laden message immediately!

Microsoft never sends file attachments with email messages!

Please take a moment to read the following articles:

For future reference, Microsoft NEVER emails you updates. Now that the hand
slapping is out of the way

You may want to elaborate a bit as to what its doing now? Error messages,
sluggish etc....
