Just like everything on your computer - how much something is *needed* is a personal question. I almost always do not install (custom install) or uninstall the Apple Software Updater when I see it on _my_ machines. I choose to update things manually. I almost always install Quicktime, Real Alternative, Flash and Shockwave on all computers I service because they are free and many web pages people frequent use one or more of those plugins at some point. As for your needs - I cannot say. ;-) -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html |
