So I was watching the 6:30pm news right now on NBC (Fresno KSEE24) and the weather man was just about to give the forecast when this popped up on the screen:




At first I thought he was using a Mac but I then noticed the blue bar. The guy went on to explain he doesn't know why that keeps popping up on his screen and he is going to have to call the computer company up and ask. Poor guy. Someone should direct him here to these forums. :)

It's really not that hard to turn off automatic updates.
