Good morning,

I've looked all over for an answer to this. I don't know why I haven't
asked here, where I probably could have got a real answer. But: what
is -AUMagic? Is it a good thing or not? Thanks, Joe

It's called ZoneAlarm and its reporting that Win Me's AutoUpdate is
attempting to access the internet. For some reason some versions of ZA
report AUMagic rather than wuauboot.exe. -AUMagic is the switch used when
launching wuauboot.exe on first booting Win Me.
