My computer has been automatically updating the critical
windows fixes. Is there some way that I can find out if
the cure for the msblaster is already loaded on my
machine or should I simply download the Microsoft fix
manually? I also have McAfee VirusScan and firewall
products loaded on my machine and both have been updated
to the latest version as of today.
 
Hi John:

If the update is installed, it will display in the list of currently
installed programs on your computer. To check that list:

1. On the taskbar at the bottom of your screen, click Start, and then click
Control Panel.

2. Open Add or Remove Programs.

3. In the list of currently installed programs, look for a Windows entry
that contains 823980.

If that entry is present, the update is installed.

If that entry is not present, the update is not installed--you should follow
the instructions that are listed on this page as soon as possible:
