[moved to a more appropriate forum, this isn't music :) ]

I just got a new windows update with multiple critical updates last night. I'm assuming that covered this problem...?

i think it's more the fact that they've finally released patches

so the news story is that theyre admitting to their inability to actually release something so terribly flawed that it they tend to have severe and serious security flaws waiting to be explointed by every and any script kiddie out there?

Hmm. I have odd timing. On a whim, this morning, I went and ran Windows Update and installed these patches. I didn't realize they were such a big deal. :*)**

I'm just glad MS released some pacthes. I really like pacthes.

I had a dog named pacthes once.

But he died.

From a virus!

Poor pacthes, how I miss thee.

Pacthes.
