Ah, right. Sorry for my confusion. So, yes, your theory really is a good one, although it is surprising that months later the update ping count did not return to its older value, e.g., the March counts are significantly higher than August ones. Maybe our usage is dropping. If we think the restart delay is a bad thing, we could be more aggressive about encouraging people to restart and apply updates. -- Mark Smith Pearl Crescent http://pearlcrescent.com/
