The IE security update came out Dec 17, so if you don't have windows setup for automatic daily updates go to the website below and click on "Get the latest Security Updates". Then just follow the instructions. This is only if your using Internet Explorer browser.

Great comment, Craig - it is OUR responsibility to keep our systems updated... security fixes, virus and malware definitions, and software updates.

In many cases, the software has settings for 'automatically check for updates'. Use them!

The Browser security hole that was reported the other day was patched by 0930 the following morning.. if your system was set to auto-update, you are already fixed. If not, follow Craig's suggestion, AND THEN set your system to auto-update.
