Microsoft 'patches' tear at computer users' good will | |
|
||
| Time: 03:50 EST/08:50 GMT | News Source: Seattle PI | Posted By: Byron Hinson | ||

Microsoft Corp. has found yet another security hole in its software, which runs more than 90 percent of the world's computers. By itself, the latest flaw isn't much better or worse than the other 47 security problems Microsoft has disclosed this year. Hackers could potentially exploit the newly discovered flaw to misdirect Internet shoppers and trick them into divulging sensitive information such as credit card numbers or bank accounts, but doing so wouldn't be easy. The bigger problem for most computer users is the sheer number of flaws coming from Microsoft. Each time one is found, Microsoft issues a software "patch" that it recommends be downloaded and installed. Last year, Microsoft issued 60 patches. On occasion, it has had to issue patches for the patches themselves. | ||
