MS Confirms Win2K Worm Hole Patch Is Buggy | |

Microsoft Corp.'s patch for a worm-vulnerable security flaw in the Windows 2000 operating system is causing problems for some users. The software giant late Friday confirmed several "isolated deployment issues" with the MS05-051 update, but insisted that the problems should not stop anyone from applying the critical patch. Word of problems with the patch comes at the worst possible time for officials at the MSRC (Microsoft Security Response Center), the Redmond unit that has preached the "patch-now-or-else" gospel since the update shipped earlier this week. With proof-of-concept exploits circulating and experts predicting that a network worm attack may be on the cards, enterprise IT administrators testing the patch are now dealing with a new round of headaches that could delay overall deployment efforts. | ||
