Let's see, here's a list of every program I know that FORCES restarting on you:

- Windows (duh)

- Apple auto-update

- Norton

- Adobe

- Java

- 729 programs after initial installation

I'm sure I've missed a ton.

Only certain programs updated through the Apple software update actually require a restart.

...few software programs do either. When I was a kid and impatient to play a new game, I never restarted the computer after installation. I rarely had problems.

It's somewhat sad that Novell has died. NLMs made it so you almost NEVER restarted the server.

My dad would always tell me to do so after I installed a game. Tongue Not that it really mattered...

Okay, I may be a moderator but I don't know what to do -- someone please ban this loser.
