No cancel button. I even have a screenshot of it doing that to _me_

activate this update your computer must be restarted. Windows will
automatically restart your computer in 3:56 minutes.

update that will help protect your computer. This update requires an
automatic restart of your computer.
About a week after these, I was already using Fedora for everything
but photo organizing. It took me another year to discover F-Spot and
recycle the Windows partition.
