Several people have written and advised me of this article.

Now, I'm the last person to be defending Microsoft.  I think
EVERYthing they produce should carry a surgeon general's
message like cigarettes: "Warning, frequent or constant use
of this product may cause lockups, registry crashes, and/or
complete system failures"

BUT......

Microsoft released the patch on Monday, and the article refereed
to in the below message, was written on Wednesday.  I am not a
bit surprised that this one paragraph "article" has absolutely
no facts or details to support the vague and non specific
warnings she makes.
