    I still strongly recommend that you do NOT apply the October Black Tuesday patches.

    Susan Bradley’s Patch Watch column in this week’s Windows Secrets Newsletter describes known problems with MS09-054, MS09-056, MS09-058, MS09-061, and MS09-062.

    Oy.

    MS-DEFCON 2: Patch reliability is unclear. Unless you have an immediate, pressing need to install a specific patch, don’t do it.
