I have only one complaint about it. The google updater stays resident in memory, rather than starting when you boot, checking for updates and the killing itself after installing updates or finding none available. I once counted the number of running applications that were taking up space just waiting for an update to be available. Didn't like what I found. Only security-related updates should be watched for continuously. A program that watches for a new version of real player is wasting RAM.

I usually shut the updater down shortly after I turn the computer on.

That's interesting, but I have most of the programs installed already.

Wow,I use the Google Toolbar,but the pack is new to me.
And seeing as Microsoft® Windows Live security pack has now finished beta testing and is for sale at "Special $19.95 pricing" (£11.38/16.2348 EUR)May be time for a change 😉
