Microsoft patches critical PowerPoint hole

A security hole discovered in Powerpoint that would allow arbitrary code execution by a remote attacker (read pwns u) has been patched by MS. Exploits have already been seen in the wild so you should be getting patched (unless you want a copy of XP antivirus 2009 or similar, a keylogger and a spambot on your PC). The vulnerability affects office 2000, 2002(XP), 2003 and 2007 versions of Powerpoint (but not powerpoint viewer). Full details from the microsoft advisory here - MS Advisory
