Experts advised computer users with renewed urgency to apply a free repairing patch that Microsoft has offered on its Web site since July 16, when it acknowledged that the flaw affected nearly all versions of its flagship Windows operating system software.
Is that the same patch that opens other exploits All these warnings kill me.

Has anyone else noticed how most of the flaws in Microsoft code are buffer overflows or overruns (depending on how they word it).

If they would improve or add code that would check the size of data being put into the buffers there would be A LOT LESS security holes in MS software. I'm not saying these are the only flaws but they are the majority of them. Whether it's in RPC or another module.
