Tuesday Microsoft patches included a patch for the Windows PDF reader, as well as an Office patch that addresses "Remote Code Execution" among (apparently MANY) other things.

Hi,
We got hit with a crytolocker/bitlocker attack last week. Fortunately we
have good backups so were able to restore, although 3gb of data took some time to do.
Was that 3gb on a DVD or a USB stick? I hope you mean 3tb :-)
By the way, some of these spread via open Windows shares, so check your network security.
