Somebody hit the internet 'snooze' button

It's been a remarkably quiet week this week. Only a few bulletins, and nothing particularly earth shattering in them.

Opera had a small group of vulnerabilities, and as a Wii owner who managed to grab the Internet Channel when it was free (take that non-early adopters!) I'm wondering if that version needs patching too. I'll have to wait for the next blue-flashy update warning to come up.

The issue we mentioned in our previous blog post about Fedora still doesn't appear to have been resolved, so Fedora users (or potential Fedora users) should probably hold off updating their systems until everything is resolved. In the mean time, perhaps you'd like to use an alternative operating system. Like Windows....
