Thanks Ziroc!

It's prettys sad they have to keep patching it because there are so many 'holes' in the program..

Sloppy code.

PS: I'll always keep you updated on stuff like this when I find out, I'm subscribed to Microsoft's 'Technet' so I get 'alerts' from time to time.

Thanks Ziroc. I have the critical update notification on my machine, but of course I haven't heard anything about it except here. Good to see someone on the ball.
