| Microsoft promises proactive sweeping for flaws This might either raise eyebrows or prompt giggles, but here is the link for the article. Good reading, but I'm sure everyone will have their ideas about it. The interesting note is that patching for WMF was the fastest ever for any flaw (I suspected it, but only had it confirmed by this article).

| Re: Microsoft promises proactive sweeping for flaws Um .... Executable Code stored in Data Files .... to speed up processing of the Data? Enough already! If people had some damn patience, the security flaw would not exist  /me personally feels no "Data file" should contain executable code. I hate MS office documents for that reason
