EVALUATION This bug is a side effect of Ashley's work on Custom Alert messages in AutoUpdate. It's because of the some unintialized strings(junk text or causing random crashes), not getting the registry value properly(causing partial text being shown) & sometimes appending 'Click Here' when it's not needed(causing it to show twice).
