Sidebar Update For Vista Improves Security

Microsoft has released an update for Windows Vista’s Sidebar that improves the security of the platform. The update generates unique identifiers for every single Sidebar Gadget and allows the Sidebar to block the installation of known malicious Gadgets. Additionally, it will now warn you if a Gadget you already have installed or in your Gadget Gallery is marked as malicious. Once Microsoft marks a Gadget as a bad boy, it will be cleaned off all systems running the update, making it easy to prevent Gadgets from hurting your system.
