• New IE patch MS12-063

    Posted on September 22, 2012 at 08:21 CDT by • Comment in the Forums

    There’s an(other) emergency out-of-band patch for Internet Explorer. Gregg Keizer has a full write-up on Computerworld.

    “Because IE10 was not affected by the recent zero-day vulnerability, Storms suspected that Microsoft may have known of the flaw before it publicly surfaced. That would go a long ways in explaining the speed with which it fixed the bug.”

    Indeed.

    I’m going to install the new patch on my machines, and recommend that you do the same – but I’m not in a big hurry about it. Why? Because I us Firefox as my main browser, haul out Chrome when I need to look at a site with Flash, and save Internet Explorer for the rare occasions when I need the compatibility.
