I've never done the HP update since I got my laptop in September, so after being pestered on a weekly basis I decided to see what it actually wanted to update for once instead of just clicking cancel. Seems all this time it has been bothering me to update.... only the update software. Needless to say, I still just hit cancel again anyway :P.
