Hi Ron,

Thank you.

Here is the annuonce from Microsoft.

On 9 January 2007 Microsoft is planning to release:

Security Updates

.. One Microsoft Security Bulletin affecting Microsoft Windows.
The highest Maximum Severity rating for this is Critical. This
update will be detectable using the Microsoft Baseline Security
Analyzer and the Enterprise Scan Tool. This update will require a
restart.

.. Three Microsoft Security Bulletins affecting Microsoft Office.
The highest Maximum Severity rating for these is Critical. These
updates will be detectable using the Microsoft Baseline Security
Analyzer. These updates may require a restart.

Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool

.. Microsoft will release an updated version of the Microsoft
Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool on Windows Update, Microsoft
Update, Windows Server Update Services and the Download Center.
Note that this tool will NOT be distributed using Software Update
Services (SUS).

Non-security High Priority updates on MU, WU, WSUS and SUS

.. Microsoft will release no NON-SECURITY High-Priority Updates
for Windows on Windows Update (WU) and Software Update Services
(SUS).

.. Microsoft will release 2 NON-SECURITY High-Priority Updates on
Microsoft Update (MU) and Windows Server Update Services (WSUS).

Although we do not anticipate any changes, the number of bulletins,
products affected, restart information and severities are subject to
change until released.

Engel, I need some help i'm a little confused. Am i going to be able to get
the critical windows security update from WU, your post of the malicious
software removal tool is the only update that says will be available from WU
and MU. The other updates say they will be detectable using the baseline
security analyzer and the Enterprise scan tool. I don't know what that means.

Hi Ron,

You can read (and is a lot to read) and install MBSA (at your whish) here:

Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer 2.0
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/tools/mbsa2/default.mspx

MBSA 2.0 Frequently Asked Questions
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/tools/mbsa2/qa.mspx

Sometimes they writeres have a degree in Law and make something simple, look
hard and confuse.

Dont worry about the Enterprise. We are not in that field.

Remenber to turn ON the Auto Update and Microsoft take care of the rest.

Happy reading a have a nice day.

I agree with Engel. Ron--don't worry about that information--these patches
will be available via AutoUpdate, WindowsUpdate, or MicrosoftUpdate.
