@ 2010/09/07I'll assume you are securing Windows XP, since XP was Microsoft's primary consumer offering from 2001 to 2007. The tips in this article also apply to Windows 7 and Vista, but the examples are based on XP.
I assume that the copy of Windows you want to secure is on an "unknown computer." By this I mean a computer that is previously unknown to you, so you can not make any assumptions about it. If you're refurbishing a "known" computer, for example, an old machine you haul out of your own basement or attic, you may be able to skip some of the steps.
