Our IT dept uses Radia to deploy patches/software etc.
The problem is that its not very informative, and through out the day you just get random 'please reboot' prompts. Is there a way of working out, why radia wants to reboot your pc for the fourth time?

Contact their helpdesk, ask if there's a technical person who can list the updates. If one of those processes is "in use" on the client's PC, then it cannot be replaced (you can't replace a running executable) and will be replaced on the next boot, just before the login-screen appears. Hence the need for a (4th) reboot.
Ask them if they could set up the patches so that the clients all update at the same time, preferably before office-hours. That would mean that all computers should be booted at that time, but that's when the most clients will not be using their apps, and it should limit the amount of reboots required during the day.
