In this newsletter last spring, I urged you to download the Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer, which I described as a tool to find things that are "on" that should be turned off, things that are "off" that should be turned on and ports that should be closed (or open) and aren't. Lots of you did download it and use it successfully. Now it's time to upgrade.

A glitch in Microsoft's Windows Update automated patching service caused a security fix that was released last month to be delivered to computer users on Tuesday, the same day Microsoft proclaimed December would be a patch-free month. The software patch fixes a serious vulnerability in a set of Web site management tools called FrontPage Server Extensions, which are part of Microsoft's Windows 2000, Windows XP and Office XP software, according to Microsoft Security Bulletin MS03-051 released Nov. 11. Exploiting the flaw could allow an attacker to gain control over a user's PC, Microsoft said.

An onslaught of software updates and patches can prove frustrating for any systems administrator. But this deluge may be particularly vexing for those running Microsoft Windows systems, which often must be rebooted after a patch is installed, unlike Linux or Unix. Fortunately, the software giant is beginning to overcome that Achilles' heel.
