I had a similar problem and I am still not sure if I have got the Patch, my Desktop keeps on about"your trusted Website and is not keen on letting any update in, surely just going in start Menu and finding Updates and mine are set to auto it should have come in, or running AVG. I have them set to do a full system scan daily. I think that patch arrived about 1am in the morning,didn't it? I mean this morning todays date?

Tristram, I've just tried to follow your advice of updating immediately but when I went into Internet Explorer and clicked on Windows Update I was taken to an Error Report page as soon as I got onto the Microsoft site. I'm using IE 7, Windows XP and JAWS 9.

Without too much unnecessary hyperbole this is an update that all IE7 users should take their browsers to Windows Update for straight away rather than wait for MS to puch it out to you. If you need or want to know which update it is then it is called "Security Update for Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP (KB960714)". The update closes down a recently discovered zero day remote code execution attack vulnerability. It has been thought such a priority by Microsoft that they have issued an out of cycle patch for it, which is only the second time in 18 months this has occurred. You can activate windows update by pulling down theh "Tools" menu and selecting "windows Update" from within Internet Explorer. Regards.
