office xp update keeps being detected as needed.

I have office 2003 Pro/corp and it is not an upgrade.
any MVP want to let me know? I run the updates for my company and many of
them have this update notification when going to AU, but since no one has
Office xp, it is quite strange.

Do you have any components of Office XP?
If so, that is normal.

I guess that it is normal. As I look in the registry, there are components
for 10, 11 (My only install), 8 and 9. We just might have to live with it
since there are converters and other tools that are used.

Then you should install the Critical Update.
It is not always necessary for something to be used for a vulnerability to
be exploited.
