There are 11 updates available from Microsoft. Mostly security fixes for the various versions of DirectX but there's a couple of others thrown in for good measure.

Geez, if they'd do it right the first time, there wouldn't be a need for updates!!!
Just kidding. Bugs are inevitable :p
Thanks for the heads up TS
/me heads over to MS site.

o this is great -- a "critical" update for the buy music online link... and it shows up whether or not i have the "recommended" update installed...
pm me when the fix for the update is available!
You mean the fix for the patch for the update, to fix the update for the vulnerability, that was created by the fix for the patch, that was needed for the original update?
bugger now I am confused

Now that is funny.
Microsoft makes the word CRITICAL not so bad now, hell if I hear "the victim is in Critical condition" on the news I half expect Bill to come and administer CPR, or do brain surgery.
:D
its the ones whose risk factor is rated 'moderate' that scare me. i.e. allows an attacker to run arbitrary code on the victims machine. risk: moderate. somehow that just doesn't seem so moderate, to allow someone to run anything on my machine.
thanks TS
XP the most secure operating system from microsoft yet ;)
Just to put that in perspective have a look at the attached :D
it will be nice once sp2 comes out -- i have been beta testing it, and it seems like security is their main focus for this service pack -- furthermore, it also makes it so the hotfixes can be hidden in the add/remove programs menu ;)
Hey all, i just checked MS patches today, and now there is a Direct X security critical update... never thought i would see this one... ;)
YAY! Now I don't have to delete them all from the registry!!!Quote:
