The Register: MS releases mother of all IE security patches - Microsoft has released a cumulative patch for Internet Explorer which the firm says is a "critical" security precaution against crackers which should be applied "immediately".
Installation of the mother of all patches "eliminates all previously discussed security vulnerabilities affecting IE 5.5 and IE 6" as well as tackling three newly discovered vulnerabilities, according to a security alert from Microsoft.
