Windows BUGRecently a very interesting development took place in the Microsoft Windows and DOS domain. Last month a security researcher at Google discovered a security flaw in the Virtual DOS machine that can allow a malicious and illegal entry into the kernel of the operating system and in result install malware.

In fact the flaw has been causing this problem since all the generations of the Microsoft Windows that we know about which include Windows XP, Vista, Windows 2000 and the latest in market product product of Microsoft that is Windows 7.

After all these years finally Microsoft is going to roll out a patch to fix this bug in the upcoming security updates. The update will cater for this loophole that allow the Hackers to attack or hijack Windows PC and run their malicious programs on it.

So all the Windows users should have their automatic updates ON so that they can get hold of this patch.
