RE: Upgrade of Patches
Just add one more point, for the latest OWA patch http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS01-057.asp make sure IE is updated to at least IE 5 and above. Saw someone on this list has to undo the patch, upgrade IE and run the patch again. I observer this patch seems to improve OWA performance. Download of pages seem faster.

Use Winver.exe to make sure your system is running SP6a and not just SP6. Also, visit http://www.microsoft.com/security and grab the Security Toolkit. Run HFNETCHK and make sure you have all necessary security patches. Then, visit http://www.windowsupdate.com and make sure you have all the latest updates from there. Finally, visit http://www.microsoft.com/download and make sure you have the latest downloads form Exchange and Windows from there, too.

RE: Upgrade of Patches
Title: Upgrade of Patches SP4 went on to our Exchange 5.5 servers without any problems. To make sure, you might want to do the following: Set all exchange services (and and exchange antivirus services) to manual, reboot, apply SP4, reboot if it asks, then set services back to automatic and restart them. Prevents any "cannot write to file" messages (which I did see when applying SP3).
