Microsoft fixes 8 IE holes, including one used in attacks
4 Months ago, Microsoft learned of a security hole in Internet Exporer 5, 6, 7 and 8. Yesterday they released a patch to fix that particular problem. After hackers used the security hole to compromise end users and attack other web sites.
For those victims who have applied that insecurity patch and still wish to be hacked, there is still hope. Microsoft assured the hacker community there are still plenty of security holes in their software that Microsoft has no plans of fixing (now or ever). Microsoft knows most of their users continue to use older software that Microsoft doesn't support. So to encourage the users to upgrade, Microsoft usually doesn't bother patching anything unless the flaws are major and effect the current versions as well.
Aren't you glad that Microsoft cares about your data and your security?
