Computer: Time to Update

The following updates are critical for your computer. Get those as soon as
you can to keep your system safe and secure.

Windows Users: Microsoft released three critical security patches which
can be downloaded from here. All three flaws could potentially allow an
attacker to take control of a personal computer and steal data or launch attacks.

Macintosh Users: Apple computer also released some security fixes for
Mac OS X which can be downloaded from here.

Firefox Browser: Throughout the world the number of people using
Firefox browser is increasing day by day. The reason is a good one -- no
doubt it is the most secure and safest browser to use. Microsoft's Internet
Explorer somehow could not keep pace with these developments and are
slowly but steadily losing ground to Firefox. Users of Firefox are urged to
update their web browser software following the discovery of a slew of
security vulnerabilities
. Version 1.0.5 of this popular web browser
addresses nine security bugs while also incorporating stability
improvements. Security notification service Secunia rates the cross
platform update as "highly critical". The Mozilla Foundation promises to
release a related sub-set of patches for its Thunderbird email client. A
security update for Mozilla's internet software suite covering a separate
group of security vulnerabilities
is also promised for later this week.
