    An updated MSSECURE.XML file dated 2005.02.25.0 has been publicly released
    for all supported languages (ENU, DEU, FRN and JPN) to provide bug fixes for
    3 issues. No new bulletins have been added from the February bulletin
    release (2/8). This is a BUG FIX ONLY release.

    Bug fixes in this release:

    · Added distinct KB numbers for MBSA results for MS05-009 bulletin
    to distinguish between supported Windows Media Player detection (KB885492)
    and unsupported Messenger instances that currently report as Note Messages
    in MBSA (KB887472). This has no effect on MBSA users. This solves a
    problem reported by SMS customers who received conflicting MS05-009 results
    for Windows Media Player when using both MBSA and EST detection bundles.
    The WMP results will now be more accurate for MBSA and consistent with
    EST-based results.

    · Fixed a potential 'greater than' warning for Windows NT 4
    instances of MS04-024 on Japanese locale

    · Fixed a problem with incorrect MS02-050 reporting in obscure cases
    on German and Japanese only (which should not have been visible to users
    since this patch is replaced by MS04-011)

    If there are delays obtaining the latest, updated XML files, be sure you
    review KB842432 to troubleshoot potential local proxy and caching issues
    before posting to the to Microsoft.public.security.baseline_analyzer
    newsgroup.
