What an f'in surprise. 3 weeks I've been using IE6 and I have to download a major security patch.

Read this article if you really want to cheer yourself up and laugh out loud:

http://www.microsoft.com/.../security/noarch.asp

.... microsoft basically urges the security community to stop posting security threats and announcements in microsoft products because it can't keep track of how many bugs they receive a day ....

And if you really want to look popular and receive a hundred emails a day, sign up for the Microsoft Security Bulletin

http://www.microsoft.com/.../bulletin/notify.asp

They even call it - sign up for the "hot topics". haaha.

And look at the other headlines - these are absolutely hilarious!!!!!!!!!!:

"Get and Stay Secure: Microsoft unveils major security program"

"Manage Security of Your Windows IIS Web Services" - yeah - switch the damn thing OFF.

"Best Practices for Applying Service Packs, Hotfixes and Security Patches" - because you'll be doing this every day until you stop using our products so you better get used to it.

What a joke. joke. joke.

How can you possibly defend them?
