    Jut got 13 of them. I also reverted back from IE 11 to 10 to get my Gadget colors back and will wait awhile to install it again.

    Hmm.

    After the Mal-ware brouhaha on my wife's computer last week I am reevaluating how I set up for privacy and security.

    Reading through the info at the links, do I take correctly that as a consumer (as opposed to IT pro, network admin, other) that if I use automatic updates my various computers will be kept abreast of the issues?

    Any consumer should have his/her PC set to Auto Update.
