I have a question:

All the updates for IE6 are not listed here, right?
I have a slight problem with that - I hate IE7 and don't even install it. I use Opera instead and only open IE for pages that don't work in Opera at all. So: is there any possibility to list updates for IE separately and include the IE6 ones as well, please? Pretty please?

Also: when I see in changes that some updates were removed, does that mean they no longer are of any use or are included in some new ones? Will it create any problems if I just keep adding the new ones and keep the old ones still?

Usually the IE6/IE7 patches are just folded into the pile as XP patches. I usually try to mark them separately to indicate what they are. Here's the list of what I have.

IE6-WindowsXP-KB929969-x86-ENU.exe
IE6-WindowsXP-KB933566-x86-ENU.exe
IE7-WindowsXP-KB928090-x86-enu.exe
IE7-WindowsXP-KB929969-x86-enu.exe
IE7-WindowsXP-KB931768-x86-enu.exe
IE7-WindowsXP-KB933566-x86-ENU.exe

Usually if you see an update removed out of a list, it's recognized that the update is old. Or, a newer patch includes the changes in the older patch.

No.

@Glenn: You hit everything on the nose. However, 2 of your IE7 patches are replaced. KB928090 is the cumulative update from February and KB931768 is the one from May. Both are replaced by KB933566.

I double-checked and agree with you about KB931768. However, KB928090 is required, as Microsoft made a big error in not including a file in the IE7 package in subsequent packages for it to be considered as "completely replaced".

corpol.dll is in:
KB928090-IE7 7.0.6000.16414
KB928090-IE7 7.0.6000.16414 7.00.6000.16414

(the first column is the update version and the second is the version of the file in the system (in this case windows/system32)

See

and also the post of: Thursday, May 10, 2007 12:52 AM by Michael Kraft at http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2007/05/0...w.aspx#comments

I find no indication that this file was rendered non-relevant, though I notice that Microsoft went and took out corpol.dll from 928090. Is the file rendered useless?

Of course, there are certain files only updated in the IE6 packages that seem to get used in IE7 (browseui.dll and shdocvw.dll) which still seem to be available to the end user (they're in windows/system32 after an upgrade to IE7). It'd be nice to get some answers, or at least some consistency. Right now it seems it's required for one to uninstall IE7 entirely and then update IE6 and then reinstall IE7 & updates to be fully updated. Silly, but seems true.

Hello, i was planning to make a website containing all windows updates with direct download link from Microsoft.
Do you think it is allowed??

thanks

I just got three files today through Windows Update for Windows XP SP2.

928365 and 928366 are updates for .NET 1.1 and .NET 2.0. You can get the appropriate update for what you're running here:

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/...n/ms07-040.mspx

Then of course, 890830 shows up every month.

Great thanks for the update, at least one person was waiting for it ^^
What about the kb923689 patch for XP, published on the 10th of july, is it the same as the kb925398-v2 ?
There's something I don't understand.

@ the_guy Thanx for the update!

Just out of curiosity... where did You find the "Removed KB885626 for WinXP SP2" info?

Big thanx in advance from a very wet Sweden...

/SwedenXP

[the_guy]

It's replaced by KB936357, which is in the mandatory updates section. I believe the update just shows up for people with Intel processors.

Ahaa - now I see.

Thanx for a very quick answer!

Hey there...

Very first item in the XPSP2 list has an error

Quote

KB939373 -› Vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Information Services Could Allow Remote Code Execution
Download -› 621 KB (July 9, 2007)
Switches: KB99373.exe /q /n /z

The exe in the "Switches" line is missing a character; should be KB939... not KB99...

(edit)
Last-ish item too:

Quote

KB936357 -› A microcode reliability update is available that improves the reliability of systems that use Intel processors
Download -› 692 KB (June 11, 2007)
Switches: KB885626.exe /q /n /z

Wrong exe.

Hello all !

My first post here

I think that I`ve stumbled on a small error in the_guy`s list - namely:

Windows 2000 part of the list:

Download link doesn`t seem to work. I have posted corrected one below.

Quote

KB913580 -› Vulnerability in Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator Could Allow Denial of Service
Download -› 5.21 MB (May 9, 2006)
Switches: KB913580.exe /passive /norestart /quiet

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...;DisplayLang=en



Cheers !

[the_guy]

The bugs have been fixed. The KB913580 bug was just caused by an extra http://. The rest were by copying and pasting.
