I don't normally see much value in the Microsoft help pages, as they explain very basic tasks, however this mini-product review is of reasonable personal value, so thought that I would pass this on. This link will take you to a page of tools / utilities etc for Internet Explorer 7 (and above).

Not Patching Hurts.
|
|
Tuesday, 12th February 2008

After a serious four hour session diagnosing server issues, the problem was identified. Two key patches were missing from a server, causing a world of pain for a 3rd party vendor, unable to setup a simple FTP server, with public internet access. If you're responsible for servers, or computer systems in general - be aware of required patches! If you're not aware, don't care, or just don't have time - get a professional in, and it will save a wealth of time - and more importantly - money!
