It's patch Tuesday..
« on: 13 August 2008, 18:44:07 »
Just a reminder (for those who don't have Automatic Updates switched on) that the latest batch of updates for your Microsoft products are out.

Windows update has 14 patches for me today, a lot of them critical. (5 of them are for Office 2002 though). And a reboot.

Tedious, but worth it.  :y

Which means the OOF server will be rebooting either tonight or tomorrow night (depending on how its schedule works out)

Something Mac users are getting very used to, seeing as Apple have had more serious security holes than Microsoft this year ;)
