Superfish 2.0: Dell ships laptops, PCs with huge internet security hole

Okay, interesting find.

I located the second XPS 8700 workstation. No certificate present.

Both machines have a manufactured date of 13th October.

Both machines were received on the 23rd, and I had both side-by-side doing Windows Updates, installing our standard SOE software. I was pretty much sitting there with both machines, two keyboards, typing the same things into both.

One machine was deployed to a user, and has been in constant use. The second was put back in its box to keep as a spare for when it was needed. The one we put away has not got the certificate installed at present.

I'll do a quick update and see if it appears.
