What is in Next Automatic Windows Update on Tuesday, June 13, 2006?

Microsoft Gurus:

How can I found out what is in the next Microsoft Automatic Windows
Update?

In April, they released KB912812 which changed how ActiveX was handled
within Internet Explorer; then, they quickly undid that with update
KB917425.

Will Microsoft re-release the ActiveX update on the Second Tuesday in
June, also know as Patch Tuesday?

Or, how can I find out what patches Microsoft will release BEFORE they
are released?

Thanks.

It has already been announced that 917425 will be disabled in the June
update.

Robin:

Thanks for the news.

Now, how can I find out the same information (i.e., updates to be
released) without posting to a google group?

I again thank all of you for your very helpful support.

One hopefully last question: I signed up for all email notices that I
could find and went to these websites:


https://profile.microsoft.com/RegSys...ionwizard.aspx
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/Security/default.mspx
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec...in/secrss.aspx
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec...scomprehensive
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec...curityadvisory
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec...s/default.mspx


.... and still I did not see any indication that "Yes, Microsoft will
re-release the ActiveX patch on Tuesday, June 13, 2006," or any
internet site that says, "Microsoft will release these updates on June
13, 2006."

The closest I got was on the last website above, it says, "Next Advance
Notification: June 8, 2006." How do you all know that Microsoft will
indeed re-release the ActiveX patch on 6/13/06?"

I must humbly ask, "Did I miss something?"

Microsoft do not give any details of forthcoming updates. Even the advance
notification on June 8 will just be a list of systems affected and how many
updates will be applied.

But read http://support.microsoft.com/kb/912812 very carefully.
