Windows Automatic Updates
If you are using Windows Automatic Updates, and you previously
downloaded all of the
required software updates
, the Automatic Updates icon should be present in the
system tray, and it should report that updates are ready for your computer (
Figure 4-3
).
If so, you are ready to apply the updates.

You should install all security-related hotfixes, but do not
install other types of hotfixes, such as Microsoft QFE
patches that fix a particular problem, before obtaining
validation from NEC Corporation of America. See
