Does it even let you install that under SP2? It might give you an error
because some files are actually older...

I expect that, consistent with other hotfixes and updates, this particular
patch will not run in the presence of SP2.
Lacking SP2, this update prevents the exploit of the msblast vulnerability.

Thank you,

Joe
