Intel's Security Problem/ Windows Update Problems
A lot of corporatespeak gobblydegook from Intel and MS is out there, so I need some plain words about Spectre and Meltdown:
My machine is a Win 7 Ultimate 64 w Intel Pentium G620,
MS Security Essentials A-V w Windows Firewall
I've had it only a year and I can't afford a new one.
1--I ran Gibson's Inspectre.exe, and found my CPU is vulnerable, but not my browser
2--Can I get a patch? If so, where?
3--If I don't patch, what might happen? then I'll decide what to do
4--I just installed KB4074587. Is that the only Feb update? Is it cumulative? Dec never installed, Jan wouldn't install, but finally did when the Feb one came out. My mind is spinning.
