Only 4 of promised 8 patches coming from Microsoft
There were supposed to be eight patches coming from Microsoft today, but only four are being doled out, with the most critical fixes on hold for now. According to the company, the patches were not ready due to "factors" that sometimes impede correct fixes. Of the four being held back, three are tied to Office and one will shut the door on a vulnerability hole in Windows.
