Safe mode with networking is still safe mode.

Updating does not automatically mean downloading from the net. I would have said "downloading" in that case.

RE: I got tricked - MSN Virus/Spyware Thingy
well i tricked the virus instead ;)
there is a way to do this but they had to have sent you a certain file type....in this case they sent me a compressed .zip file containin the virus lol....that means i saved it  opened it saw it was a msdos app and deleted the bugger as soon as possible, just one of my many tips;

if they send you a zip file save it then open it to see whats inside, remember the virus cant do anything unless YOU activate it.

p.s. if they send you a file called "photo album" i recomend that you check wit da user first, this was the think that tried to trick me....just remember, humans are smarter than machines ;)
