Lenovo T520 XP-64 Business Avast. 

Here's what's happening.  When I try to install bluetooth, Avast complains with the error code attached and BT never installs correctly. 

Can anyone help on this?  mitch DOT landry AT rawsonemt DOT com

Facebook sees 600,000 compromised logins per day
http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/news/2011/10/facebook-sees-600000-compromised-logins-per-day006-of-all-logins.ars
I still wonder if "compromised" means actual hacked accounts or simply attempts to access an account using
an incorrect password ??? (Something all of us have probably done on occasion.)

Whilst I too will wait for the actual security update, when you download the hotfix/fixit there is normally an associated one to reverse the fix. If I were to use the fixit I would download the reversal function also.

Microsoft is currently still working on a security update. However, the company said that the update will not be ready in time for its upcoming monthly patch day, known as Patch Tuesday, next week.

As Dave said, you can Enable/Disable the fix: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2639658
