How to remove the Conficker Worm and update your PC Part 4
Here we are at part four.
Here we’re going to update your computer and all 3rd party software on your PC.
Run Secunia’s Software Inspector to catch missing application patches. Third-party applications, especially media players, are more likely to suffer from security holes than Windows itself is. The security firm Secunia.com offers a free scan, informing you when your PC is running an insecure version of an application that has a security patch available.
To run Software Inspector, see Secunia’s Personal Desktop vulnerability scanning page. http://secunia.com/vulnerability_scanning/personal/
