New MS Hotfix (KB2496898) posted

While there are several versions of it for each of their OS's, I'm providing a direct link for Win 7 x64:

What does it fix? Hell if I know, since the KB page isn't up yet. However it does say:



"Install this update to resolve issues in Windows"

Because downloading yourself is much more Pro style.

There's always a slight chance that updates will actually be detrimental to stability for your particular machine and manual DLs give you an extra measure of control.

Gary's kinda delegated to me posting updates for him, since I apparently get them sooner than he does. But seriously, he's a busy man, and I'm already here, so I keep up with the updates, plus I forward issues to the proper Asus employees as needed.
