Microsoft is gearing up to release 12 security bulletins Tuesday that will include patches for critical vulnerabilities in Office, Windows, Internet Explorer, VBScript, JScript and Visual Basic. The updates, which will come in Microsoft's monthly Patch Tuesday release, February 12, 2008.
The critical vulnerabilities all cause remote code execution problems. That means if the flaw is exploited, a hacker could remotely control the infected machine. The vulnerabilities rated important also cause remote code execution, which generally garners a critical rating.

I hate UAC controls
I'm gonna wait a couple of days on this one.... lets see what happens....
yet i'm still stoked what sp1 will actually do.
Breaking the numbers down I think it's like 2-3 updates for Vista and like 1 or 2 for Office 2007?
Whatever the case, point is that from the looks of things their newer products aren't in need of all 12 updates.
Only two critical updates for Vista. And I'm betting my $0.2 that most of it is IE related and therefore hardly concerns me.
