DonkeyKongerko Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 Just so everyone knows, this means Microsoft will probably be releasing a TON of patches in the coming months to fix all those security holes that they've never bothered to fix before. This is because any kiddie who gets their hands on this source can probably find a couple backdoors or other weaknesses and mess up any system running Windows NT/2000/XP since they are all based on this code. So please everyone visit windowsupdate.com early and often and download all the critical updates you see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Prawn Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 I set my computer up to notify me when there are critical updates, but I also check in every few weeks or so just in case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
