Microsoft Update as IE Homepage

I use Mozilla Firefox as my default web browser so I do not use Internet Explorer (IE) except when I am forced to by an IE-only webpage. I set my IE homepage to the Microsoft Update webpage so that I when I do use IE every now and then I am reminded to check for operating system updates and security patches. The Department of Homeland Security just issued an advisory recommending the installation of the latest security patches for Windows so you might want to head over to the Microsoft Update webpage now, especially if you do not have "Automatic Updates" running.
