Yeah, I have mine set to "Automatically download updates but let me
choose whether to install them". Does it do it at 3AM? There seems
to be nothing in the dialog to indicate that but I guess it could be
hard coded into Vista's auto-update system. I wish Vista would let
me change that. I'd probably change it to run on a weekday
afternoon like at lunchtime when I won't be on the notebook and I
know the notebook will be powered on to do the update.

I still think that *nothing* should be able to run in hibernate
mode. It means the CPU and memory are active which defeats
the purpose of hibernation.

For the rest of the week, I'm going to hibernate my notebook as
usual at night but unplug the notebook's battery! That way, it
couldn't possibly power on! Its a shame this poor hibernation
implementation forces me to do this though!
