The Worms they are a comin'

FYI- Microsoft has issued a patch today to address three new security vulnerabilities in most versions of Windows, similar to the ones exploited by the MSBlast worm that struck recently.

You can apply the patches by running Windows Update (Start->Windows Update)

Worms exploiting the new vulnerabilities are expected soon. And these aren't nice worms like Stevely here. Oh No...

<<-- more like.

For more information:
Windows flaws allow PC takeover: Microsoft identified three vulnerabilities in Windows on Wednesday that could have a similar effect to that of the dreaded MSBlast worm of August.

New Windows virus may hit soon: It’s going to be another patch race.
