I've had Vista Home Premium for awhile, and am becoming more cautious about updates to the point of turning off the auto-update function. There are plenty of people who are superstituous about it, and the large number of the updates bother me for fear of driver stability and for my changes to remain untouched.
The Vista FAQs don't seem to offer any specific information about updating, only to "do it" for security and w/e other reasons. Are there people who keep track of what each new update does, anyone here notice unauthorized changes after updating? I want to keep updated in terms of improved compatibility and so on, but are some people right to worry about updates or is it just superstition?

Yep...I feel your anxiety.
I have Vista Home Premium, too, and there is an update at least once a week...but what can you do when ya didn't get a Mac?
But...I like my gaming system and my work related stuff so...update I must...just keep that system restore disc handy!

I have Vista running on this machine and have installed every update that Microsoft has published so far and have not had a problem. Mater of fact, the updates have cured some of the little annoying problems that Vista has had. The also help tighten up the security. So download and install your updates so that you system doesn't become vulnerable to security attacks.

Suck it up and be a man. If you don't install the Vista updates, bad things.... (there's a reason they're being put out)
