Auto update windows, via the MS website and in future leave autoupdate ON, if it still shows it may sometimes with older computers (Intel 386s etc) be necessary to reinstall windows then directly update it to sp3 via the MS website.

After updating windows reinstall devices then go for the latest versions of browsers , antivirus etc.

This bit gets scary especially when people talk about BIOS and reinstalling Windows and video cards.
