Everybody... PATCH!

Attention Windows users: Microsoft has admitted the discovery of yet another security vulnerability. They've only known about this one for six months!

You can expect a virus to be exploiting it shortly. Better run quick to Windows Update and patch that hole!

Microsoft sure knows how to make an IT person's life a living hell. (Thank God our Corporate office is finally looking into investing in patch management software.)

I enjoy when I come into work and windows tells me I need to install a new patch.

Seriously, as bad as WinXP has been, its not as bad as Win2k was. It seemed like this summer there was patch after patch I had to download.

This is all Microsoft's fault. We should VBS, ActiveX or even Java (gotta get my shot into Sun) be able to take over your computer? Who was the moron who thought this would be a good thing?
