Default [ANN] MS XP Updates



For anyone who doesn't check daily, there are 9 security updates for
XP. They appear to be pretty significant in security enhancement.

I waited awhile back and managed to get a nasty MHTML ported infection
before I did download the update...

Check daily? Why would you do that? Either:

-Turn on automatic updates, or
-Check on the 2nd tuesday of every month, or
-Sign up to the newsletters and receive email notifications.

Updates are only released once a month (unless deemed to be
so critical they really cannot wait).

I have the updates turned on to alert me. Many do not from what I
gather.
