Don't forget to upgade Google chrome - 12 high severity flaws have been fixed


My  Philosophy

1.  If you don't patch your PC then it is bad
2.  If you don't patch your Browser then it is worse.

For banking and other important activities. Use a different browser in  a new Private window and NEVER use that browser to access any other sites.
