Analyze church computers for security

You, like many web developers at churches, may well be one of the people (or the only one) who gets asked to help with "computers" -- you know ... recommending what to buy, installing them, installing software, helping with problems, educating users, ...

If so, you should download, install, and run on those computers the latest Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer (MBSA) -- version 2.0. MBSA not only checks security patch status, but also will look at several other aspects of system security and give you cautions and advice.

You may also want to check out the Puter Gnome blog, which often has security tips.
