Is W2K receiving security updates?

Comment:

I was wondering if Windows 2000 is supported by Microsoft with free security downloads to keep that OS secure? If it is, do you have any Idea how long it will be secure?

Yes. Go to the Windows update site in IE to download the most recent hotfixes/updates for your computer. How long will it be secure? The OS is never completely secure. :) Life's more painless for the brainless.

There are numerous updates available for 2kPro, however Microshaft stopped producing new updates over a year ago. _________________________ Embrace paranoia, they ARE out to get you!
