Posted on 3-11-11 Zero Day For MS Windows
3 Nov 2011
There are reports of a `zero day' exploit for windows which is jargon for
a virus which is using a previously unknown bug in MS Windows that is not
fixed yet even if you are up to date with patches.
It apparently is using Word .doc file attachments to spread, so if you get
unsolicited Word attachments do not open them, even if they promise fame
and fortune.
Infact, we recommend you don't open any email and/or attachment promising
those imposters Fame and Fortune... (-:
