Users should run windows update NOW for windows7/vista and xp.
The flame malware used a pirated MS cerificate to sign some code in the virus.
Vista and 7 don't need to reboot but xp does.
PS I just did this and it is NOT patch tuesdays... so it is critical

That's good Joan. The last thing users need is hacked certificates!

Strange that I still have not seen this update. Mayhaps I already had it before the start of this thread. I DO seem to recall an update that was not "Update Tuesday".

Jay, go to Windows Update and look at your update history. Mine shows Update for Windows 7 for X64-based Systems (KB2718704). Double-click it for the description. Looks like the one to me.

I had intended to take a peek but never got around to it today as I was doing up the new drive on my laptop. Since I'm not on my laptop at the moment...
