Ramblings of an old Doc

 

It’s been a busy month for MS.

Just last week MS released an unscheduled security patch for the zero-day RCE patch.

So, May 13th will be  ‘Patch Tuesday’ and as usual MS has delineated what will be in the update.

You can read about it here: https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/ms14-may in far more detail as to what each patch is, and the software affected broken down in the Executive Summary and the “Software Affected” tables as well as the breakdown by OS.

The Malicious Software Removal Tool will be updated as well.

Suffice it to say, this is an update not to be ignored. You can also expect an Adobe Update also on the 13th.

Checking for updates. No updates available...yet.

They probably won't show up in Windows Update until tomorrow, that is what usually happens.

LightStar is correct. MS does this to stagger the server load.

Thanks to everyone who kept the post 'alive' . These are really important updates.

You need a new computer?

I just upgraded this one two months ago.

I know I may regret this but what function are you doing on the computer that is crawling, internal operations or using your browser?

Booting up after the updates took 4 minutes and every time after that is taking 4 or 5 minutes. Used to take 40 seconds.

What OS kona? 

From my experience a reboot after doing an update will take a little more time than normal, you should even see a screen that tells you that.

Used to take 40 seconds.

I have an SSD and I barely boot up in 45 seconds.
