Extra updates for Vista

6th September 2007

Microsoft Corporation has released five updates for Windows Vista. Two of them were marked as important, the other two as recommended, and the one as unnecessary. Experts who deal with the security problems ware a little surprised by these patches, out of the monthly cycle. Let`s recall that Microsoft typically releases updates every second Tuesday of the month.
Important updates concern the services Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS), which is in charge of files transferring by means of free network traffic. Suggested updates correct some errors in Vista and improve its reliability and optional updates relate to the vulnerability of the drivers installer Catalyst.
None of these updates is critical, and it is this very fact, that surprises the experts. The next scheduled set of patches from Microsoft will be released on September the 11th. You can download current updates through Windows Update.
