Released in 2000 as the successor to [[Windows NT|Windows NT 4.0]], Windows 2000 was marketed as the most reliable and secure version of Windows to date; a fact that generally held true as far as reliability goes, but unfortunately, its security was quickly compromised by many major viruses being created for it. As a result, although it was succeeded by [[XP-tan|Windows XP]] for desktops and [[2003 Server|Windows Server 2003]] for servers, Microsoft continued to release security patches for it regularly until they ended support on 13 July 2010; over 10 years after the original release. | Released in 2000 as the successor to [[Windows NT|Windows NT 4.0]], Windows 2000 was marketed as the most reliable and secure version of Windows to date; a fact that generally held true as far as reliability goes, but unfortunately, its security was quickly compromised by many major viruses being created for it.
