Here is a link to Microsoft where you can get a free 2-CD set of all the security updates to date. This is absolutely free with no shipping and handling.


For anyone that has had to reformat a hard drive and then update via a 56k modem this is a godsend.

    This would also be helpful for those users who are on a network. When brining a newly loaded system online for the first time, without the patches in place, it is entirely vulnerable to infections from other clients on the network. Loading the contents of these disks onto "fresh" systems keeps them clean once connected to the LAN.
