Possible Issue with Forefront Update KB2508823
Included in this Patch Tuesday is a Forefront update KB2508823[1] (Client Version: 1.5.1996.0).
We have received a number of reports that the KB2508823 update fails during the install. Once the update fails, the existing Forefront client is also removed. This leaves the machine without any anti-malware protection.
We recommend you hold off deploying the update until confirmation from Microsoft.
Microsoft have posted a similar warning here:

Google Chrome Updates Available - just in time for Pwn2Own
The Pwn2Own contest by HP Tipping Point held at CanSecWest each year has a new sponsor this year. Google.
Google has offered up a bounty for breaking into Google Chrome. As a seemingly direct defensive measure to prevent a big pay out, Google has published updates the day before the competition kicks off that fix numerous problems.
Yesterday, Google published 23 updates for the Chrome browser. 15 of them were rated high by Google. So get those browers patched!

The nice part is Credit and Cash go to the individuals that report and assist with patch development.

distribute malware. Even if the URL listed on the ad shows a legitimate website, subsequent ad traffic can easily lead to a fake page. Different types of malware are distributed in this manner. I've seen IcedID (Bokbot), Gozi/ISFB, and various information stealers distributed through fake software websites that were provided through Google ad traffic. I submitted malicious files from this example to VirusTotal and found a low rate of detection, with some files not showing as malware at all. Additionally, domains associated with this infection frequently change. That might make it hard to detect.
