Supposedly, this is Missoula, Montana – though I think the locals would disagree with me.

Here’s the embedded version, which right now looks the same:

Right now, if I use the UI to navigate out of it, I can re-enter the real world, but then I can’t go back to the “green fungus reality” unless I refresh the page.

You try installing the update that fixes the “Install Cancelled Issue”, and you repeatedly get a dialog that pops up each day trying to install the update, and then fails with an error of “Installation Canceled”. 

Methinks they haven’t fixed the bug!

(BTW this is relevent to the HP dv7 laptop, and HP Photosmart C4580 printer on Windows Vista x64.)
