I have nothing set to auto-update. Everything is manual and I decide if I want a new version of an application or not.

Okay. My point is that they're all set to auto-update by default.

I think HL2 and HL2:EP1 are getting the recent update to the new branch of the Source engine forced, regardless of what you have your autoupdate set to. Nothing has been changed except a few graphical improvements, less bugs and acheivements, if that makes you feel any better.

I don't think you'll be playing Rage on a netbook so no worries there!

Thats definitely not even possible
