-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Microsoft have issued a new critical security bulletin which
highlights a vulnerability in many versions of their Windows
software.

Details, along with a patch to address the issue can be found at:

   http://www.microsoft.com/security/security_bulletins/ms03-039.asp

This vulnerability is very similar to that exploited by the recent
MSBlaster worm and it is believed that an exploit for this new
vulnerability is already 'in the wild'.

We strongly recommend that all customers running Microsoft Windows
should, as soon as possible, read the above Microsoft Security
Bulletin, and if a patch is required, download and install it 
without delay.

We also advise customers to keep their systems and anti-virus
measures up to date on a regular basis.
