MICROSOFT SECURITY UPDATE ROOTKIT NEWS - SECURITY

Microsoft Security Update may have been affected by rootkit.

February 23, 2010

There are reports that a rootkit present on user's PC's may have affected recent security updates from Microsoft.

The rootkit, may have prevented Security updates from completing correctly, leading to system corruption, including 'blue screens'.

Rootkits are especially nasty types of malware when they infect a PC.  They can have a destructive payload and are notoriously hard to remove.

Security software, including Microsoft Security software, can help with the detection and removal of rootkits.

Users should still keep up with Microsoft Security updates on their PCs.  Users should also check to see if they may be potentially infected with rootkits or other malware.

For more information please refer to the Microsoft website.
