From the BBC News website:

"Microsoft did a good job of updating people's home computers, but the virus continues to infect business who have ignored the patch update."

Am struggling to understand why businesses are holding out? Oh my, why?! Worm\Virus = down time = loss of profit ... sigh.

If you haven't patched yet, then you should find this URL (MS08-067 bulletin) very handy. Visit it, prepare for the patch, roll it out ASAP and at the same time make sure your Anti-V DATs are up to date you numtees!

If it's your patching mechanism that let you down, or you found it too hard to manage the deployment, then now is a good time to look at Configuration Manager 2007 to help you patch your systems in a controlled manner. You'll be more effective at deploying these patches and practically no down time due to nuisance worms!
