    Yep, and if you allow windows automatic updates, you'll be notified of any
    new patches as and when they are available. This can be set to download and
    install automatically, though from experience I would strongly advise to set
    to review before installing.

    Well as far as I know, once you visit windows update, it will only have you
    install patches that you don't have installed. So I assume once installing
    SP3 and doing Windows Update, you should have everything.

    From my experience Once you' ve installed SP3 you have to run windows
    update so that you can get all the patches starting from when SP3 was
    released.
