Microsoft Announces Critical Windows Updates

billg.jpg
On Tuesday, April 11, Microsoft announced three critical security flaws in its Windows operating system. One of the flaws appears in some versions of Internet Explorer, Microsoft's Internet browser. The flaw could make it possible for an attacker to use Internet Explorer to take over control of your PC. The other two flaws were in the Windows operating system itself. Unfortunately, security issues are nothing new for Microsoft. If you haven't done so already, now is a good time to visit Microsoft.com. You can download updates for your computer for free. Just follow the online instructions. And, while you're at it, make an appointment with yourself to visit Microsoft's website at least once a month. Or, even better, install automatic updates on your computer and "forgeta 'bout it."
