I have had ME since around the time of the release and have the auto updates feature on. I have not been notified of any pending updates (as of 11/26). I also can not manually update using the product update page (even after turning off auto update). I get a w**31S.dll (or is that 3I) error while the smaller window is open (initializing product catalog) and IE 5.5 has to be closed. ¿Any words of wisdom?
