Secunia: 28 Percent Of Software Unpatched

Secunia says that over one-quarter of applications on users' PCs lack the necessary patches released by software vendors to address critical issues.

Media players seem to be the most commonly vulnerable, with over 33 percent of all Quicktime, and 27% of WinAMP installations missing important security updates. Browsers do better, with a little over five percent of Firefox, 5.4 percent of IE7, 9.6 percent of IE6, and nearly 12 percent of all Opera 9 installs missing security updates.
