So I'm patching both my new server AND my hair

Finishing up the patching on the server and it was kinda getting a bit boring waiting for the patches and the reboots so I started multitasking and highlighting [patching] my hair at the same time [the blonde streaks were growing out].  Even with my Shavlik Patch tool there's a couple of patches that are not patched by Windows Update, MBSA, or HfnetchkPro and you must go to the download site to get.

The key ones to remember I'll pull out here:

You may also need some of these that can be obtained FOR FREE from Product Support.  Call your local Microsoft office and obtain the patches.

P.S.  Andy reminded me of a couple of others [check the feedback section and one in particular]
