Security Updates Galore This Month For Windows

Once again, it is that time of the month for the new updates to the Windows Operating System.  We have a handful of security vulnerabilities this month, and I highly advise, if you haven’t downloaded and installed the latest Windows Updates to do so now, and not put it off any longer.

There are a total of 4 severe updates that have been identified that could allow an attacker to compromise your PC system and gain control of it.  There is another critical update for consumers using Internet Explorer 7.  If you have Microsoft Office, there are a few severe updates you need that could run arbitrary code when a maliciously modified file is open.

Keep your Windows OS running as safe and securely as you can by getting these updates as soon as possible.  Do not hesitate, get them now!
