If you were hard at work at your Windows PC last night, you probably noticed the little software updates icon asking you to install some updates. Four critical updates were patched on this month's patch Tuesday, including a patch that finally fixed a remote execution vulnerability in several versions of Office. It's a good thing, too, because yesterday reports began to surface about malicious Excel files that included executables designed to exploit those holes. Yay for finally fixing a two month old flaw. Heh.
