The WMF Patch Has Landed

Microsoft has made the smart decision and released the patch:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms06-001.mspx
Of course people still need to apply it (I was able to run Windows Update and get it installed without a problem). I am curious if this is going to cause the same printer problems as the unofficial patch.
So its official, the official patch has been released. You need to uninstall the unofficial patch to install the official patch, officially. :)
