"... Microsoft announced three new critical vulnerabilities
Wednesday that merit the immediate attention of IT administrators.
Microsoft rolled fixes for two new vulnerabilities in Internet Explorer
into a cumulative patch for the ubiquitous Web browser. Also, critical
flaws were announced in Windows components DirectX and MDAC. In each
instance, an attacker would be able to run code of their choice on a
vulnerable Windows system."
Cheers,
Gary
