The problem "was" that users were not applying their updates. Now the problem 
is that
an annoying popup (or popunder) is jumping on our desktops, and the first 
problem 
was aggravated for some people posting here (the statistics of that is missing, 
as noted
before).

Also, can you imagine the security absurd for a 
unexperienced user which gets used to the system
popuping something AND asking for root privileges?
How easy is to mimic that with a website popup?
