Application on my W2K Adv. (SP2) server is not certified with any newer
service pack so the SP cannot be updated. No new critical patches in windows
update since last August. Should all critical patches that list W2K Adv. (SP3
or SP4) as the O/S be installed manually on this server since they are not
showing up in windows update due to SP2? Can windows update be tweaked so
that it would list/install all of these patches on an SP2 server? Thanks for
any help.
