Microsoft "Fix It" Beta [news.bbc.co.uk]

Microsoft has launched "Fix It" software that keeps an eye on a PC and automatically repairs common faults. The software basically adds the automatic diagnostics system in Windows 7 to older versions of Microsoft's operating system. The software, currently available as a trial or beta version, is intended for users of Windows XP and Vista. The package also tries to anticipate how security updates will affect a PC before they are installed.
