We spend a great deal of time trying to keep our system(s) secure.  I
have often wondered why HP does such a sloppy job in this regard.  Many
hours of rework are created by a single patch.
 
If nothing else, I consider this to be common courtesy.  I really
appreciate all the vendors who take the time to create clean
installation processes for their products.
