We have the omni-present Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer (922760) - pay particular attention to the "HTML Rendering Memory Corruption Vulnerability" - and a nasty-sounding "Vulnerability in Workstation Service".
Last month Microsoft Office took the limelight; this month "Remote Code Execution" targetting the core services seems to be de rigeur. Keep your systems patched, don't run unecessary services and don't run more than you have to as administrator. Sign up for notifications here."
