Ars Technica hurriedly reminds us Windows folks to patch our systems due to an exploit in Internet Explorer that can allow malicious code to be executed from certain booby-trapped websites.  You could also stay away from risky sites and stop using Internet Explorer, but hey — who am I to judge?

Windows XP users can head to update.microsoft.com and Windows Vista/7 users can run updates by clicking on Start and typing (and then clicking on) Windows Update.
