Reply to "Microsoft have issued a security update for even old XP operating systems"

Microsoft has issued a security update to deal with a vulnerability which could have lead to a global virus outbreak. They regard this as so serious that they've issued it even for XP computers which they stopped supporting in 2014.

The other Windows operating systems which could be affected where they've issued an update are Windows 2003, Windows 7 (I think that was included in the update they did yesterday), and Windows Server 2008.

 

Apparently 3.75% of desktop computers in use have Windows XP !

Oooo that’s sounds like it might be well dodgy I’m not on Microsoft , but I will tell anyone I know who is El
