Only two things I would do.

1) Fix: O13 - WWW. Prefix: http://
2) Update IE (Internet Explorer)

All other things are perfectly normal and as it seems up-to-date.
Nothing to worry about

Ok, thanks a lot Eddy.Only one thing do i must update IE couse i am not using it, i only use Mozila Firefox?

[DavidR]

IE is deeply integrated into your OS for many tasks you don't realise, windows Explorer, Help files, Outlook Express preview, etc. So yes it is essential to keep it up to date, otherwise exploits that are patched by MS will still be open.

I have to correct you here DavidR.
Normally you are right, but she is using 2K, not XP and in 2K IE is not integrated.

Still Snowhite, it is very much recommended to update IE.
IE (just as many other applications) is using dll files.
These are (what you can call them) template files and can be used by different applications.
So if there is a update for IE that also has a update dll, this will mean that the dll is updated for ALL applications that are using it.

Easiest way to update windows (and other microsoft things) is to go to http://update.microsoft.com and install the updates from there.
If you have ms-office installed go back to that site after you have updated windows and click on office-family in the top of that screen to update the office components also.
