anne, from looking at your link, I don't think there's any cause for concern. I think you've misunderstood what's there. It has nothing to do with Windows updates. It simply masks its operation by APPEARING as if it were an update. The article isn't specific but all malware needs to come to your computer one way or another - from a download, from a dangerous website, from a link in an email or message, etc. Legitimate updates directly from the software producers are very rarely of concern. Sometimes there are hiccups (problems with the updates themselves that may need replacement) but almost never anything piggybacking from a third party standpoint. Setting your software for auto-updates remains a recommended practice by the experts.

Windows 7 is getting kind of old - I'm getting old too so I forget a lot of windows 7 things unless I'm actually looking at it. You can download a windows 7 update trouble shooter from Microsoft. I might try downloading IE11 offline installer and install it after visiting control panels 'internet options' and on the last tab Resetting IE.

+1. No easy way to do what you are talking about. Keep in mind, most window grills are white (in new construction) even when they are talking about a wood window that is getting painted.

chickemama I'll certainly look into Ikea. These RTA cabinets I was looking at (where the designs came from) were quoted somewhere around $12k to $15k (after a discount from about $19k). I'd have to look back to see what it all included. Im thinking I told them to just forget about the island for now and take out all the bells and whistles (pull out trash cans, knife drawers and any other specialty type cabinets). That got it down to about $6k to $7k. Long story as to why it never got to a final/final draft. Those plan photos are from two different RTA cabinet companies with several draft presentations. I agree, they are all over the place. A few times Id ask them to take something out and put something in and the out item ended up still being in. lol As far as the double oven goes, you can see where I asked for them to remove it as I decided just to get rid of it. We could keep the one we got, its fine but we just don't use it much anymore (now that there is a range next to it). So its just collecting dust. I don't have to have all the fancy stuff. I even know I can add a few of those fancy items to the cabinets later for a heck of a lot less money. So if I do a range only w/oven, then I need to decide where its going to go.
