 The company was informed about the new variation on
 November 27th and started working on a patch to correct the flaw. The
 patch is now out and downloadable on Microsoft's site at
 
 http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS01-058.asp

note that this patch does NOT show up if you click on "Windows Update" in
the Start menu; you must go to the above URL to get to the patch.

users who treat Windows Update as their method for verifying the state of
their system may be in for a suprise.
