I had to update the newest version of Youtube on my droid last night.

Screwgle really messed that up. It lasted all of 5 minutes.
What a piece of crap. More tracking crap than any app. I have ever seen.

I am following the same path I did with XP several years ago — I quit upgrading most software, including browsers and Windows.

About 6 months ago, it seemed that every software upgrade created a conflict with some other software program.

Windows 7
Java
Adobe PDF
Adobe Flash
Firefox
IE 10 [MS auto-updated from 9 to 10. 10 caused some add-ons to quit working. I had to drop back to IE9 just to keep things working]

Every time I see ‘upgrade/update’ for software, I cringe. More times than not, I have had to do a system restore to a previous time just to clear out the new conflicts.

It wasn’t broke, so they fixed that.
