I received the message today from Microsoft to install
the latest patch "security bulletin ms03-039" on Windows
XP/Home Edition. However I have another patch "security
bulletin ms03-026" installed already. I hear the patch in
MS03-039 supersedes the patch in ms03-026. Does that mean
I have to UN-install the patch in ms03-026 to install the
patch in ms03-039 ? Or go ahead and install the patch in
ms03-039 that will replace ms03-026 ?

Confused,
Greg Gober

Did you receive an email with an attachment? If so, don't touch
the attachment and delete the email. This is anything but no
patch whatsoever.

On searching for "MS03-039", Microsoft's websites should be able
to inform you on that.
 
Greetings --

No, you don't need to remove the earlier patch before installing
the latest one. You can go ahead and install the new patch. The
Control Panel will show both patches installed.
