    Maybe the more information page is wrong. Would a patch changing currency be 5.2 megabytes?

    Since I'm not from Lithuania, I Borked this in the "Bork" file aka Windows update "Hidden files" where it shall remain "ad infinitum":cool:

    pegas, you forgot something =
    If MS cares so much about it, the out of band update released on February 24, is very late imo.

    For an issue since Jan 1, nothing in normal January updates, nothing in normal February updates, but ....... one out of band update released on February 24. lol!

    Yes I saw it, but I don't agree with it. ;-)

    Same as Vista, same as Win 8......
    things with Microsoft which go beyond our understanding but actually they are justified......
    Very well justified.......

    Installed 30 updates today for Windows 8.1 x64, about half were important ones & the rest were optional "resolve issues in windows" ones, surprisingly they all installed very quickly in about 1 minute 20 seconds. Normally they take a lot longer to install but that was probably down to the MRT being released last week as that is the one that slows things down with it's scan. So far no issues :)

    The highest profile bulletin, however, is MS15-020 which resolves some issues left behind by the original Stuxnet patch, CVE-2010-2568, released in August 2010. The bulletin covers two remote code execution vulnerabilities, one addressing how Windows handles loading of DLL files, and the other patches how Windows Text Services improperly handles objects in memory.....https://threatpost.com/microsoft-patches-old-stuxnet-bug-freak-vulnerability/111565

    Given MS's recent performance with their updates, I will ignore them for a couple of weeks or so as per usual.
    I don't want 'Borking'.
