Hoping to put a close on Monday's IE Zero-day vulnerability (https://isc.sans.edu/diary.html?storyid=14107) Microsoft has announced the release of a FixIt (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2757760) to address the issue, with a patch to be made available via Windows Update this friday (http://blogs.technet.com/b/msrc/archive/2012/09/19/internet-explorer-fix-it-available-now-security-update-scheduled-for-friday.aspx)

Can we look forward to more timely security patch releases from Microsoft?  That would be good news indeed.
