Microsoft Issues 2 New 'Critical' Security Patches

Argh.

More reasons never to let Internet Explorer run on your Windows PC. I realize that hackers are always looking for (and creating) security holes, but I really wonder why Microsoft could release a piece of software that needs updates every two weeks and still remain credible.

To everyone who reads this, dump Internet Explorer! Mozilla's Firefox is a much better alternative... for the home, the office, and every computer in the world running Windows.

Or just get a Mac, of course... but run Firefox on it as well.

The Geek Code desperately needs updating, but in any case here's mine (as of 2010-02-28):

If you really care about knowing what that all means, you either know the code already, or you can get it decoded for you here.
