Microsoft Apologizes for Update Blunder

October 30, 2007 | Author: admin | Filed under: Open Source Software

Microsoft has apologized for a Windows Server update that automatically installed the Windows Desktop Search tool on users' desktops without approval. The mistake happened because Microsoft reused the same update package for when WDS was first published in February as an optional update that was only applicable to systems with the search tool previously installed.
