Dublin: December 17th 2008 -   Microsoft is encouraging customers to follow simple safety guidelines including the application of all relevant software updates, installing up-to-date anti-virus and anti-malware software and ensuring that the firewall on their PC is turned on.

Updated Information:

The security update for Internet Explorer has been released. The update will help protect customers from malicious attacks. Like a vaccine developed to fight a virus, this “security update” will protect your computer only if you install it. If you have turned on Automatic Updates, your computer will install the security update automatically. If you don’t use Automatic Updates, please go to https://update.microsoft.com .  

The Microsoft Security Response Centre continues to monitor the threat landscape while working, and sharing information with, partners around the globe through the Microsoft Active Protections Program to help protect our customers.
