Outlook

This may be the largest collection of Outlook/Exchange links in one place, anywhere. It’s certainly the largest I’ve ever seen….

As an update to yesterday’s post, I wound up just going to the Windows Update site and updating the XP machines here. There’s only a couple of them, that takes a lot less time than trying to figure out why the automatic updates didn’t work. Next month, (or next patch)I’m going to simply leave it be and check a few days later. Perhaps Josh’s suggestion (in the comments) that the servers were simply too busy for completed downloads is correct. Only way to find out is to let it go and see if it works a few days after the fact.

Besides I have other things to accomplish right now. 🙂

    Not because it didn’t work, but because the latest update repeatedly failed to install, but constantly kept popping up a balloon from the Systray to ask me to download the same update that failed to install. Out of pure annoyance, I uninstalled the program. Some nights, that’s how I feel. Update: Thanks to the May…

    Sundays are good, after being up until 3AM learning and playing with some Visual Basic stuff, my wife brought me some breakfast in bad around 10, and then let me go back to sleep for a little while. Excellent! Eventually we did make it out of the house for a trip down to the used…
