Hello fellow editors! :)

Tech ARP ( http://www.techarp.com/ <http://www.techarp.com/> ) has just
posted the ED#84 : Microsoft Silently Rolls Out Anti-Hack Update For
Windows Vista.

Quote - The release of Windows Vista Service Pack 1 not only heralded a
long-awaited update of the operating system, it also meant the end of
two common Windows Vista anti-activation exploits - the Grace Timer
exploit and the Paradox OEM BIOS activation crack. But those who think
they can escape by not updating to Service Pack 1 would be sadly
mistaken.

That's because Microsoft has surreptitiously released an anti-hack
detection update via Windows Update. Those who chose to have Windows
Vista install updates automatically would have this update installed and
running by now.

Here's a quote from the editorial :-

"You can see that the KB940510 update is listed as Important. At
this point, most users would assume it's an important patch that fixes
flaws in Windows Vista and install it. Double-click on the update and
you will find this short description."
