New Microsoft security flaws found

Internet security experts have found two “flaws” with Microsoft’s long-awaited security update for its Windows XP operating system but the software giant insists that the new Service Pack 2 (SP2) is secure.

Microsoft says SP2 offers users the latest security “innovations” but Internet security experts say hackers could exploit cracks in SP2 defences to exploit a user’s computer.

Microsoft began rolling out SP2 this week. It says the update fixes several security holes and provides new protective features.
