Windows 7 Updates - 5 Optional Updates Today?

Today I have 5 optional updates for Win7 - Anyone else have them and have opt'ed
to update them? Any problems? One in particular concerns me - anyone know what
the "AMYUNI Technologies - Printers - Amyuni Document Converter 500" updates is
for and is it really necessary and/or safe?

Thanks for any insights on this one and the other updates released today!

Amyuni is a PDF document printer/converter, in Devices and Printers do you
have a option to Print to PDF document? Sometimes it can come bundled with
other programs. That said, I would check the Amyuni Website for drivers. I
would never download drivers from MS for a non-MS program unless it was
absolutely necessary.

I had three updates for Windows 7 x64 based systems and installed them.
That's all I saw.

It's a fairly well known print-to-PDF (and maybe other formats) driver.

In there, I have one labeled "Quicken PDF Printer" which I don't recall ever
using.

other programs. That said, I would check the Amyuni Website for drivers. I
would never download drivers from MS for a non-MS program unless it was
absolutely necessary.

I don't have one labeled "Amyuni.....", so don't know if this is new?

Ok, thanks and see my notes above.

Another question, where do I check on my system to see if is already installed?

I don't download any Windows drivers since it seems to be better to go to
the manufacturer's Web site. As for any other "optional" updates, I check
them pretty carefully and, if needed, do a Web search to find out exactly
what they are. It's a pain but I don't really trust Microsoft.

Amyuni is the driver used by the Quicken PDF printer.
