Wcry ransomware has attacked 75,000 PC's in 100 countrys--PATCH LINK

thank God the CDC is not run by the same ASSHOLES at the NSA that developed this malware and then allowed thru incompetence it getting let loose on the world. If so we would all be dying of some plague.

A day after a ransomware worm infected 75,000 machines in 100 countries, Microsoft is taking the highly unusual step of issuing patches that immunize Windows XP, 8, and Server 2003, operating systems the company stopped supporting as many as three years ago.

PATCH is at this link. choose 32bit or 64 bit patch per your OS.
update servers are getting HAMMERED, so they may be unresponsive. Keep trying

FYI: My Linux systems are IMMUNE

Nothing to see here......just another government mismanaged tool to "protect" the innocent ,excuse me, "the ignorant" people.

Hard to believe we have people who put their trust in such an illusion.

Hey....lets all turn on the news for the "real" truth and form a new mindless opinion on what to react to next
