Microsoft Adds Level to Security Rating System
Microsoft has expanded its security rating system to
include "important" warnings; the new level is one step below
"critical." Critics say Microsoft should have reduced the number
of warning levels from three to two instead of adding a level; they
maintain the increased number of levels makes it harder for people
to know if they have to apply a patch immediately or if they can wait
until a more convenient time.
