    This is a cumulative update that includes the functionality of all the
    previously-released updates for Outlook Express 5.5 and Outlook Express
    6. Additionally, it eliminates a new vulnerability that could allow an
    attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability to access files
    and to take complete control of the affected system. This could occur
    even if Outlook Express is not used as the default e-mail reader on the
    system.
