I’ve already turned off all updates for Windows 7.

You have to turn off security update, too, or else they will render certain software unusable.
Then that leaves you vulnerable to malware.

“I’ve already turned off all updates for Windows 7.”

Ditto. And for all of my customers as well. No updates since the rollup updates came along that include security as well as spyware updates all rolled into a single inconvenient packager.

.
I have a completely un-updated win 7 on my primary machine. Fortunately its an HP so I don’t have to argue with anyone about keeping it.
