You got lucky and hopefully learned something about dealing with MS.
I disagree with this entirely.

For the vast majority of consumers, they are better off leaving automatic updates turned on. This will ensure that they are getting critical security updates and hotfixes. You may decide to decline updates on occasion (I have never updated to IE7), but on the whole, leaving machines unpatched is a poor idea.
