Biggest Patch released by Microsoft, fixes Windows 7

A week before launch, Microsoft releases its biggest patch and includes fixes,which adds background and analyst quote on Windows 7

The day October 13, 2009, will remain as a red-letter day for software giants, Microsoft, as it issued software, big enough, to engulf a record of fixing a range of security issues for its programs on this day. This software support will also be able to fix security issues in it's yet to be released operating system, Windows 7.

Thirteen security bulletins, or patches, had been sent to all its users in a monthly update, to look into the problems of 34 vulnerabilities which have been earmarked from a score of its products like the Internet Explorer, Silver light, Windows, Office and others. These patches have been classified into categories, keeping in mind their criticality and priority. At least six of them have been classified under high priority, with immediate attention waiting to be rendered towards them. These patches are deployed as a shield to protect consumers from hackers and other corrupt or malicious contents and download which one tends to get from the Internet.

A bulk of these patches will affect Windows 7 which is set to be launched on October 22, 2009. This might spell some worry for Microsoft, since a sign of security issues even before it is released is doing the rounds. The new operating system developed by it was to largely repose the customer's faith in Microsoft and also to make amends for the failure of its predecessor, Windows Vista. Microsoft officials could not be contacted on this issue. A company, usually, do disclose such complications unless patches are made available.

This was the biggest windows 7 update on a single day by Microsoft over issuing patches. The vulnerabilities in Windows 7 are many and is a matter of concern for its developers, but it is only natural that humans will have vulnerabilities while writing codes and that "to err is human".
