Hi everybody.

I would like some opinions please about windows update.

I own a small real estate company with 3 desktop computers that the agents use regularly. 
They always say that I should  update windows for security reasons. There is data 
on them we all want kept private like most biz. 

They are firewalled, we also use WPA for wireless Laptops agents use sometimes. 

I used to have it setup to download updates automatically. However when IE7 came 
out it downloaded it and messed up 2 of the 3 computers up..huge headache. (also 
smaller issues before IE7)

So what I want to know is updating worth the headache for security reasons or is 
it just futile and not worth the trouble?

Thanks
