It is possible to install this update silently. This is how i did it:
1. Extract the hotfix
2. Open gdidet.xml with notepad.
3 Change all "PROMPT" an "YESNOPROMPT" in "NOPROMPT"
4. save the changes
5. Now we need to make an IExpress package
Click Here for information about making an IExpress package
If you follow this guide above, be sure to use the INF file in the "Install Program To Launch" phase.
6. Save this package as KB873374.exe and put in in your update folder.
7. Add this hotfix to svcpack.inf, no switches requierd
The hotfix will now be silently installed
Good Luck!!

haha that is a really good question LoL
technically it advices about a big (potential) flaw that let the "malicious" user to run code on most of m$ components. the thing is that it just leave you in a new page (?)
couldn't be more helpful if WU directly detected the programs affected and redirect/installs the necessary patches? (correct me if necessary
)
No redirection to any patches...Just informing to update MS office though ALL hotfixes are already slipstreamed and installed...
Does this update helped anyone in anyway?
Let me know...
