I guess Microsoft is getting in to the habit of releasing security
updates without a security bulletin. That should help them in their
public relations, oops I mean security, campaign.
This update won't show up on Windows Update. If you do a scan on Office
Update you'll be offered the patch. How many people do that on a regular
basis?
