Microsoft releases slew of Windows 7 updates | |

Monday night, Microsoft released a slew of updates for Windows, the majority of which were targeted for the latest versions of the client and server operating systems. None of these are security updates: this wasn't Patch Tuesday and Microsoft is not yet ready to address the 17-year-old Windows flaw. The most important update is just like the first stability and reliability update for the OSes, but smaller: Windows 7 32-bit (1.2MB), Windows 7 64-bit (1.7MB), Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit (1.7MB), and Windows Server 2008 R2 Itanium (2.1MB). | ||

| The defensive reply, spoken often by MS reps "We are currently not aware of active attacks against this vulnerability.." gives me pause to wonder if they don't bother to harden Windows except where issues become public relations nightmares. I don't like the tone, nor the many customers that are asking me what I think of Macs. Microsoft needs to do better to keep their customer base loyal. Claiming that a vulnerability is not yet a problem sends to wrong message. |

"gives me pause to wonder if they don't bother to harden Windows except where issues become public relations nightmares."
Correct! It's expensive to fix problems... you do so only when your image is at risk! |
