Last night the ITsafe team,
ITsafe Team
Making IT safe for You
http://www.itsafe.gov.uk
The UK Alerting and Advisory Service for Information and Communications
Technologies (ICT) Security
sending out warnings about security threats to Microsoft Windows
installations, told of three critical updates to Windows.
A few hours later they reversed their advice with:
ITsafe Bulletin 2005/013A - UPDATE Number 1
What is it?
===========
Bulletin 2005-BUL-013 was issued on Tuesday 9th August, and related to
Microsoft Security Bulletin MS05-038 - a problem with "Microsoft Internet
Explorer" browser. Since then Microsoft have reported there have been
problems experienced with downloading the updates, and that they have been
temporarily removed. In addition, our UNIRAS partners report that
attempts are being made to use the problem fixed by this vulnerability to
attack computers.
What do I do?
================
Hold off updating your copy of Internet Explorer until the revised
download becomes available from Microsoft. ITsafe will issue an update
when this is available, and Microsoft's various automated update services
if enabled on your computer will detect the new update once re-released.
