It's 2:00 p.m. EST and there still seem to be no updates listed in
Windows Update today (the 2nd Tuesday of the month).

Are there no updates released today? Usually, they are out by now...

Today Microsoft released the following Security Bulletins.

authoritative in all matters concerning Microsoft Security Bulletins! ANY

verified by visiting these sites for official information. Microsoft never
sends security or other updates as attachments. These updates must be
downloaded from the microsoft.com download center or Windows Update. See the
individual bulletins for details.

But -- if you have SP2 installed -- there are *no* new updates showing
in Windows Update (correct?)


I checked again at 3:35 EST and there still weren't...

No Windows updates today, but there were two Office updates
for security (Office XP).

Hi

If you read those two bulletins, you will see that the WinXP SP2 base
operating system is not affected, so that is correct.


But a lot of other Microsoft programs are affected by the MS04-028
vulnerability, some Office/Project/Visio versions, Visual Studio .NET
and many other MS products, take a look here for the complete list:
