Microsoft has released the patch earlier than expected.

It became available around 7 am my time on the 6/1/2005 (UTC 8pm 5/1/2006)

Microsoft Security Bulletin MS06-001
Vulnerability in Graphics Rendering Engine Could Allow Remote Code Execution (912919)

If you have used any of the unofficial patches, remove them before installing the MS patch.

It's good to be back. I took the whole of December off, no blogs, no newsgroups, no support.

Christmas with a near 3 year old was really nice, he knew what was happening this year.

My mum broke her hip last week, actually some old guy with Alzheimer's pushed her over. She then had a heart attack, induced by the operation and potassium deficieny. She is doing well. I think she will leave hospital in the next day or two.
