Update Palooza, (Wed, Feb 20th):
UPDATE 2
Adobe Acrobat Reader 11.0.02 was published today as a fix for CVE-2013-0640 and CVE-2013-0641. More information at http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb13-07.html.
Wireshark 1.9.0 was published today. Its an experimental release for testing new features for the upcoming 1.10 version.
UPDATE
More updates arrived:
Thunderbird 17.03 arrived yesterday. It fixes 8 security vulnerabilities.
Apple released yesterday iOS 6.1.2, which can be downloaded fast as it is small (12.8 MB). So far, this update seems to be only related with a bug on echange calendars that increases network utilization causing battery drain. Better to have last version installed as apple does not always list in a detailed way all the fixes contained in an operating system update.

Probably the most dangerous thing you can do when applying patches is to rush. You may not only end up with a broken system, but worse, the patch may not be applied correctly. Take the time to test that you are all up to date. Encourage your coworkers and relatives to visit browsercheck.qualys.com to test if all plugins are installed correctly.
(we may update this diary for a day or two)
