Is this not a ... security hole ? I mean, if I can externally access your router in some way to install another firmware on it, it does not sound safe

I guess it is rather the router which pulls the firmware from a Netgear server and then installs it, which is considerably save (at least for home routers).
And by definition, even to configure it you need to access your router "from external" since you can't hook a screen / keyboard to it

OK, this means sense. I'd still be rather informed if my router would suddenly decide to upgrade itself...

Yep, something along the lines "This router will upgrade itself within the next 5 days. You'll need a backup because our programmers did not manage to implement a proper upgrade mechanism."

36 updates were installed on my Windows 7 64-bit computer yesterday and for some reason, the start up time has gone up considerably. Anyone else facing this?
And, even in Outlook 2010, if I flag an email for follow up, there is a message that Outlook 2003 could not find category for follow up (or something like that). Funny.

Time to move to Windows 8 and Outlook 2013 
|
|
|
|

I didn't like Windows 8 on the desktop, but now that I have a touch laptop using 8.1, I can finally use it properly, and I LOVE Windows 8 now!
My only complaint is the lack of apps and the poor quality of apps when I go into tablet mode!

You should review what updates were installed. Most likely is either a KB update affecting/being adversed by some add in (most common cause), or could be a new component added to Outlook, such a Hotmail connector, which may perform additional work (looking up for Hotmail accounts, contacting live.com etc.). Hard to say without hands-on the local machine.

My internet went down for 10 minutes so I went down stairs to reset the router and ended up bumping in to my wife and son in the living room.
They seemed like nice people.

Do like me; I have a chinchilla, 2 degu squirrels (with 2 offsprings now), and 2 gerbils.
They will chew up the cables in no time (including TV, washing machine tubes etc.) so you will be free of technology quickly
