Update Yourselves
I already figured out (it's just common sense!), that as soon as Microsoft discloses there is a possibility of a security leak, that the hackers, virus and worm writers would get busy taking advantage of all the people who don't have or update protection.

Is this supposed to surpise those of us who are security conscious?

Get with it! As soon as I learned the patches were out, I installed them on all my computers.

I figure, if you aren't security conscious, you are gonna get what's comin to ya, literally.
