Hi

The Hotfixes are the Windows Updates and include the Security/Critical ones
May I suggest that you leave them where they are otherwise your system could
be open to intrusions.

They are patches from microsoft. You will want to keep those. The more the
better I say. You should also remember to update and add more yourself
atleast once a month.

How did you count them? Are you sure there are 7 million of them? I think I have 6,999,999 but athen I might have missed the odd
one! How do you count them exactly? Is there a special program (XP compatible) to do this?

Thanks for any help you can give.
