Microsoft heeft twee belangrijke patches ter beschikking gesteld van een select aantal testers waarin verschillende bugs en performantie problemen worden aangepakt. Naar goede gewoonte zijn deze hotfixes al op het net opgedoken en vrij te downloaden door wie geïnteresseerd is.

Volgens andere bronnen zal Microsoft die patches ook opnemen in een volgende Windows Update ronde…
