Rebecca Everything from www.windowsupdate.com is free. Additionally, some of the fixes are highly recommended. However, if you are using the Critical Update Notification tool, you may already have those fixes. Basically, every time Microsoft creates a new piece of free software, updates an old piece of free software, or creates a bug fix or enhancement for their software that doesn't warrant an entire new version, they put it on www.windowsupdate.com. It is recommended that you visit it regularly and download anything labeled "critical", which is the top of the list.
