Are you current with your Microsoft patches and fixes?

I have a new computer (well Christmas new) and have been conscientious about keeping my operating system and office applications up to date, but yesterday I decided to check once again for patches and fixes available for Windows XP Pro and MS Office.

To my surprise, there were 15 patches that dealt with such issues as closing security holes in my Office applications as well as an upgrade to the SP (service pack) 2 installation.

Make sure you automatic updates are turned on and working and you won't run into this kind of a surprise.

Once again, safe surfing,
