OT: busy day updating security

Just as a FYI for all you Windows users...there are a huge amount of
patches to apply.  There are the MS auto-update pushes, of course.  But
besides that, some really widely deployed software out there that I just
had to upgrade on multiple machines:

Adobe/Macromedia Flash
WinZip
AVG AntiVirus

All three had arbitrary code execution bugs.  Flash and WinZip being so
ubiquitous, I figured it was worth a mention--WinZip obviously being the
worst of the lot from a business standpoint.

Happy updating!
