"Lot’s of good tips to protect your computer from it and
from fixing your PC if you get it."

Pretty generic cover-all suggestions. Use an anti-virus, firewall,
be careful about attachemts,etc.

Microsoft is sue-happy. Lawyers pretty much call all the shots.

If they just recommend disabling Java, I’m pretty sure Oracle would get legal. And that costs MSFT money even if they win.

Then again, if a few major corporate players get hacked bad they’ll be talking to counsel.

So it’s generic, pappy, we-told-you-so remodies.

This is the crap I fight everyday. In the end, the corp bigwigs hold IT responsible. That crap rolls downhill to us administrators. We’re on the line in more ways than one.

Me? I pray a lot!
