This update resolves several newly discovered public vulnerabilities. Each vulnerability is documented in this bulletin in its own Vulnerability Details section.
If a user is logged on with administrative privileges, an attacker who successfully exploited the most severe of these vulnerabilities could take complete control of an affected system, including installing programs; viewing, changing, or deleting data; or creating new accounts with full privileges. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer privileges on the system would be at less risk than users who operate with administrative privileges.
Microsoft recommends that customers apply the update immediately.

Although much of the session will be about the game's creation, Martin will apply lessons learnt during its development to current and future projects. He will touch on his experiences since quitting Rare and setting up Cambridge-based developer Zoonami, and focus on ways in which game creators can excel in design and gameplay.
EDF is a TIGA event, supported and actively marketed by many of TIGA's partner associations, including APOM in France, GAME in Germany as well as the Dutch and Danish trade bodies. EDF's International Programme Consultant is Jennifer Olsen, the influential former editor of Game Developer magazine in the USA, while EDF's European Programme Consultant is Fred Gill of Gusto Games.
"My aim is to help others through my own experience," says Martin Hollis, founder of Zoonami, currently developing the revolutionary rhythm-action game, Funkydilla. "And as this is the first time I have ever discussed the development of GoldenEye 007 in such a public forum, I hope to offer delegates inspiration and advice which will result in better games from us all."
"This is a real coup for the European Developers' Forum," adds Fred Hasson, CEO of TIGA. "Martin is one of this country's most respected yet elusive developers and his presence at EDF illustrates that it is the only conference of its type to receive such support from the length and breadth of the industry. I'm sure, like so many of the sessions we have organised, it will be something not to be missed."
EDF is open to all developers. A full list of speakers and details on the entire programme can be found at www.europeandevelopersforum.co.uk
Dice says: The EDF sounds like an excellent event for the gaming industry. Speaches, games, trading, making of goldeneye 007, game stars live, 5 day exhibition for gaming...can't get any better. :D We will keep you updated as the EDF nears down and during the event.

Caveats: This update does not include hotfixes for Internet Explorer provided since the release of MS04-004. Customers who have received hotfixes from Microsoft or their support providers since the release of MS04-004 should review the FAQ section for this update to determine how this update might impact their operating systems.
which leads to:
For all operating systems besides Microsoft Windows Server 2003 or Microsoft Windows 64-Bit Edition Version 2003, most hotfixes created after MS04-004 are not included in this security update. Installing this security update will remove these hotfixes from the system. An update rollup is available that contains these hotfixes as well as fixes for all the security issues addressed in this update. For more information on what hotfixes are not included in this security update but that are included in the update rollup, as well as instructions on how to obtain and deploy the update rollup, contact your Microsoft support provider or review Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 871260.
Which leads to:
An update rollup is available for Internet Explorer versions 5.x and 6.0
Which leads to it's own updates.
I won't bother posting those links, you can grab those from the KB article.

Is there anyway to test to see if it works?
updates (at the time autopatcher is written) that way. I quit using IE over a year ago. Not so much because I don't like IE, but because of the ability of other browsers to allow ME to customize the browser the way I want to.
23 patches after sp1 and still cant get it right theres too much patches that theres no place for it in my about window -_-U

would you say, "wow, no patches, gee they are really serious about security."
or
"damn microsoft isnt serious about security, that whole thing was all talk."
i bet that most of you would still blame microsoft.
now, since they have been finding a whole bunch of security holes and patching them, does this mean that their security kick isnt serious? at least they are trying to fix their problems and releasing patches for these problems. stop complaining and grow up.
