It is not clear to me if there is a difference of protection between the patch and the workaround is suffcient. If the workaround is applied should be still apply the emergency patch?
@Seccubus: one of the apparent authors of the attack wrote (9:21 PM Sep 25th at http://twitter.com/thaidn/):
"Another video may prove it all, but I'm tired. So believe it or not, Microsoft workarounds can't prevent the attack. Ask them for the patch!"

Hopefully the patch really fixes the problem...
