News Microsoft prepares 'Critical' Windows update

http://www.bit-tech.net/news/2009/01/09/microsoft-prepares-critical-windows-update/1

Microsoft has released the list of what patches to expect this Tuesday, and there's just a single entry - an unknown flaw marked as 'Critical'.

 

Every time I bother to boot into Windows i end up having to restart. I guess next time's no exception.

 

Perhaps not booting to windows once a month would solve that issue.

As for the patch, I think it could mean one of two things;

1. Microsoft are only patching the really extreme vulnerabilities to focus on getting Windows 7 up to speed as soon as possible; or

2. This patch took a lot of time to test, perhaps patching things in the heart of windows that required a lot of testing to check compatibility.

Either way, at least it won't be a stressful patch Tuesday. One of the few days I get off work and I don't want to be finding new ways to waste my time trying to diagnose problems on my home PC.

 

Like in not even booting to windows once month but not at all?
That's what I doing regularly, and it's irritating when I want to shut down and have to wait and wait untill my laptop finally shuts down.
