Worm Exploits Windows Hole — patch available!

Last Tuesday was Microsoft's "Updates" release day for August. If you haven't done them yet, ,it is past time. There are already "exploits" circulating automatically on the Internet. <br />
<br />
Microsoft classified three updates as <i>critical</i>, one as <i>important</i> and two as <i>moderate</i>. One of the critical updates is actually cumulative update to Internet Explorer, designed to apply new patches and to get you up-to-date on all the fixes for I.E.<br />
<br />
There is a already a worm circulating automatically on the Internet to take advantage of one of the holes. It is a variation on another worm. In addition to being a self-spreading problem, it is a spam-sender and a "downloader" — it will download other malware onto your system.<br />
