MICROSOFT has warned all Windows customers to update the preinstalled Internet Explorer app on their computer – even if they use another web browser. Older versions of IE are no longer supported by Microsoft, and could become a real virus threat.
Microsoft has issued a warning to all Windows users about vulnerable versions of IE
Microsoft this week ended support for almost-all versions of its preinstalled web browser, Internet Explorer.
