Three new Windows security holes come at a bad time

Three new vulnerabilities have been discovered in Microsoft’s Windows operating system, leaving computers running that OS open to possible hacker attacks – including PCs running the recently released XP SP2 (Service Pack 2).
According to a report on eWeek.com, one of the three vulnerabilities involves image handling, which has posed problems for Windows and Unix systems in the past. The other two vulnerabilities involve Windows’ Help system and its .hlp files, and Windows’ ANI (Automatic Number Identification) authentication capabilities.
