Patch Up Your System's Security Holes with xpy
Don't Tweak Out
It's not just another tweaking program that'll spice up your system, xpy is the latest little ditty that'll close some of those security holes that Windows XP seems to leave. Another needle in the haystack has been found with xpy 0.9.2. I've been using a lot of separate system modifiers recently and I've finally gotten my hands on xpy, a program that's still in active development.
xpy is not your typical tweaking program, it chooses to focus on your system's natural deficiencies and works to correct the gaping security problems you might face. Let's see what all the hype's about.

The problem affected patch number MS06-007, which fixes a TCP/IP vulnerability in several versions of Windows that could allow a denial-of-service attack. Microsoft called the patch important but not critical, and said users should install it as soon as possible. It was one of several patches released yesterday (see "Microsoft issues seven security patches").

how many flaws next week's
releases will fix. Microsoft,
though, did announce in its
Security Bulletin Advance
Notification that each of the
four critical updates will
affect Windows software, while
only one affects Internet
Explorer. Another one will
address issues in Outlook
Express, as well as Windows
Mail.
One critical
vulnerability affects Windows
Mail in Windows Vista and
Windows Vista x64 edition.

09.09.2005x64 Kernel patch causes random restarts, fix on the way
Microsoft has disclosed that
update 932596, a patch released for the Kernel Patch Protection
feature that is included with x64 versions of Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, and Windows Server 2008, seems to be causing random restarts on
certain machines. A Stop error is then generated (error code 0x0000001E, 0x000000D1, or another Stop error code). x86 versions of Windows are not
affected since they do not include the Kernel Patch Protection feature (also known as PatchGuard), a technology that is meant to prevent third-party
interventions into the core of the operating system.
