Windows Metafile vuln

Catching up on podcasts, Security Now! mentioned the Windows Metafile vulnerability. Here's a link to an unofficial patch.

I first heard about this from my uncle at my cousin's wedding. In my defense, I don't read crap like Slashdot while I'm on vacation.

This thing seems to be pretty nasty, and there are websites and worms out there that are already exploiting it. Applying the patch is probably a good temperary measure, even if it isn't an official release.
