It doesn't look like avast, or any other antimalware software, protects against the DDEauto vulnerability in Microsoft Office.

Thanks for the tip, but at 370 pages for the Security Warnings & Notices topic, it doesn't seem very useful. Although, I understand how having a separate topic for each exploit reported could create a lot of clutter, too.

Well you dont read the old (unless you have a special interest) like newspapers you read the fresh one for the latest news, so start at page 370 

It is there to give you fresh news    ;)
