April Fool's! The "geniuses" at Microsoft by default have your computer automatically restart after an update is applied. So if you go to lunch and lock your computer with a document not saved, you get a terrible surprise.
Save your work whenever you go away from your computer and know what your settings are. In Windows 7 and Vista: start circle, control panel, system security, automatic updates. In xp, start, control panel, automatic updates.
At least the settings are highly customizable even if the geniuses at Microsoft aren't.
Yes, you are right about saving the info. So important! Thanks for the information. :o)
