A bug which has existed in Windows for 17 years has been discovered. This one is potentially nasty because it would allow anybody with knowledge to have 100% access to your computer without any interaction from you. You only need your computer turned on and internet connected.

It supposedly has been corrected but now that it's public knowledge, expect hacker attacks to those that don't update. Update your Windows now !!!

Very unusual that they all did at about the same time, they are usually staggered.
