BOL!

Did the Compost and Ny Slimes write this stuff? :However, the tool, unfortunately, landed in the hands of Shadow Brokers. The hacker gang used the weapon through an obscure website on April 14, a day after President Trump set off the chemical attack on Syria. Many industry experts believe that the day chosen for the cyber attack clearly indicates that Shadow Brokers is linked to the Russian government.

Well,...it is hard to know exactly what is going on...but My son said the Raytheon were busy putting fixes on his laptop workstation,...and they are always very concerned about security.

Could be the Microsoft fix to the Intel 9 year old defect in the Intel AMT feature.

That is supposedly only on models sold to corporations as a desirable feature for remote management of laptops and workstations.

I have a Win 10 laptop, which I only use for some spreadsheets for my wife about once a month.

What security stuff updates should I install, when I use it next week.

WCCFRECH is a Tech Website that is in the UK and seems to be staffed with ..Pakistanians... (I am guessing,.) some are pretty good on technical stuff.

But they on occasion get beyond that and drop their opinions...on the readers.
