RE: MS Service Packs

[Alastair Cook <Alastair.Cook () crown uk com>]

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.
