Re: Stupid users need to be taught! said by Pv8man:Ya really? They will be "Re-infected" within the first 10 minutes of connecting Win 2000 to broadband. The way to install an Operating System from scratch is to wipe the drive, install the system from a CD/DVD followed by installing the updates and Virus Programs from CD/DVD disks (the updates being downloads written to the CD-R/DVD-R or pressed copies issued by the Publisher). Only THEN do you actually hook the machine to the Internet (since it should now be protected and up-to-date).
I do this for Macs for people in my user group without fast connctions (the updates can be downloaded and then applied offline) and I assume that Windows Updates can also be downloaded and the downloads applied offline. |
