Microsoft Rereleases Patch to Fix Problems

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the if-at-first-you-don't-secure dept.

AbdullahHaydar writes "From CRN: 'One day after releasing a fix for an Office XP flaw, Microsoft upgraded the severity of the vulnerability to critical and re-issued a new patch to address a new attack scenario discovered in the last 24 hours.' The funny thing is that the second bug they missed with the first fix is 'critical' whereas the original bug the fix was for is 'important.'"

    Shes worth $300m, if that makes it any hotter... :p

    Nope. A shallow, mindless whore is just that, no matter the number of digits on a CRT. Incidentally, did you know the human body represent $0.97 when broken down into purchasable(!) chemicals?

    I guess the definition of human worth per se has relative connotations in the specific classes/castes of society, with the common denominator being a monetary expression.

    "Money, money, money
    Must be funny
    In the rich-bitch world
    Money, money, money
    Always sunny
    In the rich-bitch world"

    Flaxscript, anyone? ;)
