Study: Unpatched PC's compromised in 20 minutes.

No browsing, no downloading, no e-mail necessary. Just take your new Windows PC out of the box, plug it into your Internet connection, and it will be infected by a malicious worm inside of 20 minutes, before you even have time to download updates for it. Crazy.

If you're running Windows: Start > Windows Update
