FREE Windows Update CD issued today ! - southernman - 02-18-2004 [url "http://www.microsoft.com/security/protect/cd/order.asp"]http://www.microsoft.com/security/protect/cd/order.asp[/url] In a bid to target a security hurdle rampant with dial-up Internet users, Microsoft has rolled out a security update CD giveaway for users of Windows XP, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows 98, and Windows 98 Second Edition (SE). The [url "http://www.microsoft.com/security/protect/cd/order.asp"][#800080]Windows Security Update CD[/#800080][/url] will ship with all of its "critical" patches released by the software giant through October 2003 and free anti-virus and firewall trial software. The launch of a CD giveaway with security patches is part of Microsoft's attempts reach an elusive target: home users on dial-up Internet connections. In the past, narrowband home users have been unable to download and install security patches because of bandwidth limitations. sm [signature] Re: [southernman] FREE Windows Update CD issued today ! - cat_man - 02-18-2004 Hey thanks Southernman that's really helpful.
