Microsoft Fixes 23 Security Flaws

Microsoft Corp. today released free software updates to fix nearly two dozen security holes in its Windows operating system and Microsoft Office products. At least 17 of the 23 flaws could be exploited by attackers to hijack vulnerable systems or to install malicious code, the company warned.

Keep in mind that if you are using Office 2000 you will not be able to get those fixes through Microsoft Updates or through automatic updates. Office 2000 users will need to visit Microsoft's Office site and click on the "check for updates" link in the upper right corner of the screen.

Updates explained in detail HERE.
