It isn’t often that Microsoft publishes a patch to fix a security problem outside of the normal update cycles, but they just did!
So if you use any modern flavor of Windows, head over to
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/972890
for the latest patch. It couldn’t be easier to install. Just click the repairman with the wrench in the middle of the page that says, “Fix It.” If you are using IE, it will fix automatically. If you are using Firefox, it will download the fix and you will have to run it manually.
A simple way to keep your Windows install safe!
