[edit] Exploit Wednesday
- Seems reasonable to leave this one. The phrase is used openly in among Windows security admins. The article does incorrectly cite the source of the phrase though -- deleted that.
Neologism... apparenly it's a recently-coined term to describe the day after Patch Tuesday, referring to the day of the month that Microsoft releases most of its security updates. About 1500 google hits, mostly blogs and forum postings... -/- Warren 11:05, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
