Microsoft finally gets on the ball…

…and releases a patch for IE to address the glaring security issues I’ve been ranting about for a several weeks. You can read about it here, and use Windows update to install it. Anyone using windows should run windows update poste haste.

Despite the fix, I still think no one in their right mind should use Internet Explorer. The Mozilla engine was partially susceptible to the same security issue and they had an update out within 24 hours. It took Microsoft weeks to address it, while they hid behind ridiculous excuses and surreal workarounds. Plus, as mentioned repeatedly, the IE css support is markedly inferior to Mozilla’s. In non geek speak, that means web pages will look better 😉
