You should be getting regular updates from windows because new security risks are always being discovered

Praxeas!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I never pay attention to stuff like that. Yes, I have an updated virus scanner and spyware - Norton. Yes, I click on the updates when they show up! I'm not that blonde - am I? Hehehehehehehe

I didn't notice this until we had a lightening storm the other night and I had to shut the computer down. When I turned it on and logged back in the clock was wrong!!!!!

I, therefore, went into my Control Panel and checked in the Add or Remove Programs and it does, in fact, show that the proper download was made.

KB931836 patch

I am also upgraded to the Windows XP Service Pack 2.

So, what gives?
