I went out leaving my machine switched on and on line. On return I have
an alert telling me I have a problem. There was something about 'buffer
over-run' and that all recent Windows except Me and XPPro were
affected, To download the 'fix' a URL was indicated. I went to the URL,
which was <www.windowspatch.net> There the problem was repeated, and
the download would cost $US19.95.
This does not sound like Microsoft to me, and I took it no further.
Anyone else so affected? Is it a con? It seems like it to me.
Cheers
Rick
