Microsoft has just released this year's last monthly security update which includes 13 patches for Windows, Office, IE, Windows Media Player and Publisher that resolves 19 security vulnerabilities found in these products.
One patch of particular concern is MS11-087. The patch fixes the Windows kernel vulnerability that the DUQU virus had been taking advantage of.
(Attackers embedding specially crafted TrueType fonts in documents can exploit this vulnerability in the Windows kernel.)
MS-11-092 is another important patch. It is for a high-risk level security hole for the windows media player remote code execution vulnerability - when a vulnerable user opens Windows Media Player, the attacker can use a carefully constructed digital video recording file (.Dvr-ms) to exploit the hole and use it to install malicious programs or steal users' privacy.
We remind users not to open suspicious files and promptly install security patches.

V3 recently published a review of the UTM9S along with a ReadyNAS for integration. They loved the ability of the UTM9S to be customized according to customer needs with the optional VDSL and Wireless N modules. They were also really pleased with the UTM/ReadyNAS integration on how that gave the UTM extensive logging and quarantine capabilities.
To read the entire review, head on down to V3.

We have just released UTM v1.3.14-0
This maintenance release contains bug fixes as well as minor usability tweaks. Release notes can be found here http://forums.prosecure.netgear.com/showthread.php?t=5481.
The offline update package can be found on Support.netgear.com. Simply enter your UTM model and go to the product page.
One thing to keep in mind is to update to version 1.3.7-0 before updating to version 1.3.14-0.
