I'm in no way suggesting you follow my handling of Updates but:
I don't do the update thing, they are mostly for IE and OE which I
don't use. I read all the time of some major and minor problems that
were a result of an update.
I installed SP2 - and the only update I've installed since was the WMF
patch and that was from a third party.
I don't get malware of any sort, it just a matter of save hex.
