Earlier tonight I got a message from Windoze Update. I downloaded and installed this security patch:

Critical Update for ADODB.stream (KB870669)

wtf is an adodb.stream? Anything to do with streaming video? Before I went to CG I was chatting with Scify on Yahoo and watching some videos from Yahoo. I already had installed the update at this point. I left Yahoo messenger on when I went into CG the first time. At some point during a map my computer made a weird noise and suddenly rebooted itself. So I logged onto Yahoo again, and then restarted UT and played some more. Then when I minimized UT while playing so that I could do something with Yahoo, the window for Yahoo went all funny, and my game crashed too. I had to kill the power to my computer to be able to reboot. That's a nasty kind of crash! :shock:

So could it be anything to do with this new security patch? Or is it just a double coincidence? :?:
