6 25 E 26: Internet users in 2004 faced numerous threats to computer security because of the ongoing emergence of new versions of malicious Internet software known as viruses and worms and because of security flaws in commercial 05 computer software. According to the Internet Security Threat Report published by Symantec Corp., in the first half of 2004 there was a sharp increase in malicious Internet software aimed at computers using Microsoft Corp.’s Windows operating system (OS), and the number 10 of newly discovered software security flaws in Windowsbased applications rose in the first half of 2004 after having declined in the second half of 2003. Microsoft recommended that Windows XP users upgrade to the latest version of the software, called Service Pack 2 which 15 it said added security features and removed applications that potentially were security risks. Service Pack 2 itself, however, also required some security patches. (Enclyclopaedia Britannica, Book of the Year, 2005: 161)
