Microsoft released an emergency configuration update over the July Fourth U.S. holiday that for the first time gives Internet Explorer users protection against the specific vulnerabilities exploited by the Download.Ject attack.
“We recommend that customers immediately install this configuration change through Windows Update,” Microsoft said in a statement released Friday evening.
Microsoft’s decision to release the configuration update 11 days before its next regularly scheduled Patch Tuesday on July 13 underscores what a serious problem the IE flaw represents. It is only the second time Microsoft has patched a flaw on any day other than the second Tuesday of the month since the company moved to a monthly patch cycle in October

About This Site

As a guy who occasionally curates art shows and wrangles artists together, I often have to edit and post artist bios, profile pictures, and artwork images. This can be a problem, since many artists and writers aren’t used to selling themselves. Artists rarely know how to present their art for display in a brochure, and writers aren’t used to writing about themselves.

Writers often treat the bio like it’s an interview or something. Maybe like they’re having a conversation with you, the reader. While it may work sometimes, the most common way to write a bio is to write in the 3rd person.

I’m like those writers, and I’m talking to you directly, unlike the common way to do a bio. You should see my About page. It makes sense to me, since this is a bit which describes my blog’s website. When I get famous enough that I don’t have time to talk to you, I’ll have an intern write everything in 3rd person. Until then, you get to talk to me.

Like blogs of old, this one is a personal document of the comings and goings of me. Articles I’ve written, links I’ve posted, videos I liked, etc. Here, a first-person perspective is the way to go, at least for now. So, this is my site. I’m D. H. McKee, a sometimes artist, sometimes writer. Mostly just a guy on the internet.
