On Tuesday, Microsoft will release the largest number of patches to fix flaws in Internet Explorer, Office, SQL Server, and every version of Windows including Windows 7.

13 updates will be released next and eight of them are “critical”. “Thirteen is not a lucky number,” said the director of security operations at nCircle Network Security. “They’ve been a busy bunch at Microsoft, that’s for sure.”

“The SQL Server update will affect a lot of people, especially those who use it as the back-end for their Web sites. And the Visual Studio update makes me wonder if it’s another fix for ATL,” he added.
