Updates for WinXP or for Explorer

The updates we are encouraged to download, are they for updating our version
of WinXP or are they normally patches for Internet Explorer?

From what I have experienced, it appears they are patches for Explorer, but
I would like to know definitely.

Thanks.

Tippy,

They are updates for BOTH the system and IE. For a listing of updates
that come out each month and info on them go here :
