scary certificate for www.update.microsoft.com

And here's a blog fresh off the press:

http://unmitigatedrisk.com/?p=116

But I have one issue with the author. He writes:

        I think it’s probably legitimate to use another browser to
        download patches.

However:

1) Microsoft has long said that you can only use their own browser to
download updates (or a browser that claims to be theirs).

2) Their update site no longer downloads patches. Yes, that's right. All
   it has is a message saying "please use your Windows Control Panel"
   [instead].
