Saw a link to this on Slashdot today.

Looks like some folks have completely broken Microsoft's EMET (Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit) product.

This is technical stuff, but the hackers are going to love it.

I am hardening my old XP computer to keep as a back up (stored off-line), in case I have to trouble shoot a problem with my new 8.1 laptop. I wouldn’t use it online except to go to grab what I need for a computer repair, and using all the protective software that I can, while doing it.

I downloaded EMET for it and used advice from this site, and other sites.

I don’t know what EMET is but I figure, every little bit helps.
