You're right, of course. I refer to Win9x as Windows, and 'NT as 'NT. Not
everybody does that. I've applied patches to NT a couple of times, not to
mention installing extensions. Sorry to generate the confusion.

There certainly are enough of them if you run anything based
on NT or MS Exchange. The release of new patches is almost nonstop,
not to mention the huge service packs as well. The funny thing is,
most of them seem to be so-called 'security' fixes.
