On the other hand

Isn't it annoying to begin a blog post on one subject*, then in the course of explaining the argument, produce the counter-argument too, rendering the whole thing redundant?

*: Why Windows Update shouldn't push ancillary software like IE7 and Desktop Search.

[Update 26/10/07: Whilst not addressing that more fundamental issue, El Reg and other tech blogs/fora are similarly complaining about the virtually forced installation of Windows Desktop Search, especially on corporate networks, especially those specifically configured to opt-out of such unsolicited new software.]
