Bad virus thing.
Raise your hand if you run windows. Put your hand down if you want to have viruses running around your computer as a result of viewing images. Not downloading. Viewing. Those of you whose hands are still raised should pay attention.

For the sake of procedure here is the patch made by Ilfak Guilfanov: http://www.hexblog.com/security/files/wmffix_hexblog14.exe
I know the hexblog site isn't working, but there's another way to get information and the patch Ilfak Guilfanov made.

People should go there. It's the FAQ and has links to patches as well as the procedure to disable (more or less) the vulnerability that fucks you over.
Also, any of you who turn this into a "My OS is better than your OS" pissing contest, I'll delete your comments because you're a prick. Just a note.
