Or, as we like to call this little feature here at SlipperyBrick, Microsoft Security Bulletin Watch.

This month Microsoft graces us with six Critical, five Important and nine Non-Security, High Priority updates. You can get most of these through the Microsoft Update site. Others you’ll probably need to download manually. Which updates you need vary, of course, on your machine’s specific Windows OS flavor and what you already have installed on your PC. Check after the jump for a summary list.

windows-logo.jpgWelcome to January 2008. Amongst all the CES coverage we’ve been doing we failed to notice yesterday, being the second Tuesday of the month, revealed to us on our Windows desktops that monthly ritual all Microsoft customers must endure: security patches. We’ve decided here at SlipperyBrick to implement the Microsoft Security Bulletin Watch – a basic way of us providing you information about new patches Microsoft is releasing.

For January 2008 Microsoft has released one Critical, One Important and seven Non-Security, High-Priority updates on the Microsoft Update site. You may not of course need all of these – it depends upon your machine’s specific Windows OS flavor and what you already have installed on your PC.
