And if you just bought a new system, it should have the big update (SP2) installed on the machine already, unless you're dealing with an incompetent PC manufacturer/reseller/whatever that likes to cut corners (say something idiotic like buying plain XP OEM CDs instead of XP+SP2 OEM CDs because it saves them $1-3 per seat from some gray distributor) or not stay up to speed on MS security because they don't want to deal with after-sale support or provide it.
