Microsoft and Mozilla Release Browser Patches
As the holidays quickly approach, there has been a surge in malicious activity on the net. Both Microsoft and Mozilla want you to make sure you have the latest official patches to fix your Internet Explorer and Firefox browsers.
Microsoft’s Internet Explorer security patch is now available, as is a security update for Mozilla’s Firefox browser. Here’s a breakdown of what you need and where you can get it.
Microsoft’s IE patch, coded KB960714 and part of Security Bulletin MS08-078, is considered a critical update for all Internet Explorer users. It fixes the much-publicized Internet Explorer flaw found last week that can let remote attackers gain access to your passwords and personal information. The fix is recommended for users of IE5, IE6, IE7, and IE8 beta 2.
