    MS has offered me the following updates. (1) Windows Media Player 11 and (2) Windows search 4.0 for Windows XP (KB 940157). I use VLC as my media player. I would like to have your opinions about whether it is useful for me to have these 2 updates installed.

    For myself, I have no use for windows search 4, or for media player 11, I use MPC-HC from k-lite for my media player and the normal search that comes with xp works fine for me. They are optional updates and there are very few optional updates that I install , save for any dealing with .net/xp/or IE8.
