Because people are expected to update their installs... That's why the 
up2date notification is run on every new user account, so the users can 
be warned that they need to update their systems... After all , people 
are supposed to look at a big red icon with an exclamation mark on it... 
(If they dont , I think maybe we should make up2date open a popup every 
30 seconds until the system is updated :p  [of course I'm joking on this 
part ] )
