If her NAV was around 2 weeks out of date, that is enough to cause a
problem. It wouldn't have been undetected by NAV if she was
up-to-date. It is extremely efficient and, apart from the normal
updates, it is updated immediately there is a new threat.
I happened to see mine update this morning. Normal day is Wednesday.
She also needs to download the Microsoft critical updates on a regular
basis. The message is clear when they are there to download.

Easier said than done, it is more or less impossible for anyone with a
broadband internet connection to keep MSWindows XP with all the critical
security patches required --- the required dowloads are much bigger than
the average hard disc was just a few years ago -- try than on the average
users 56k POTS landline, with a dropped line or two it could take days to
download.
