Microsoft plugs 6 security holes
10/9/07
SEATTLE - Microsoft Corp. issued six security patches in a regular update Tuesday, among them fixes for flaws that could let hackers hijack computers using a Web browser.
The software maker gave four of the security updates its most urgent "critical" rating.
Within that group, Microsoft used a single update to fix several separate flaws found in different versions of the Internet Explorer Web browser, including the most recent, IE7.
That patch blocks any attempts by attackers to put fake content into the address bar of a Web browser a technique used in phishing scams to convince Web surfers that a fake site is actually their bank, for example.

So that's why I got a not too short download a few hours ago.
Though I don't really need it since I'm using Firefox and not IE7. -
One of my best friends is an IT guy and he put Firefox on my laptop a coule of years ago. That was why. Cause itis to easy to hack IE.
