IE and Windows Flaws Not to Be Fixed Soon

IT company Microsoft doesn't plan on fixing vulnerabilities in the latest versions of Internet Explorer or Windows during its patch release on Tuesday. In order to have less IT security risks, users will have to wait a month for the patch needed. The patch released only covers updates for flaws in Windows 2000 and other OS versions which is a tad slim offering for the software giant.

The problem is that without the updates needed for Internet Explorer 8 and Windows 7, the flaws have a though chance to be exploited by hackers. The IE 8 bug leaves users without IT security when browsing websites. Until now, there are no reports of hacker attacks when talking about Internet Explorer or Windows but a security patch is needed as quickly as possible.
