KB867801

KB931768

KB890830 Malicious software removal tool May 07

IE6.0sp1-KB931768-Windows2000-x86-ENU.exe installed fine. then did a restart as required.

MRT also installed fine.

but on running IE6.0sp1-KB867801-x86-ENU.exe it show message box "This update requires IE 6.0 service pack 1 to be installed" ?? i have IE 6.0 sp1 as my system is fully up to date. has WU given wrong info?...uncompressing IE6.0sp1-KB867801-x86-ENU.exe shows files dated 7 July 2004...an old update?

Two critial updates are released today, WU found 2, but kb867801 didnt work for me..

added: i recently installed Maxthon Standard 1.5.9.80 and had it hang a few times, also IE has done the same since installing Maxthon. just wondering if this may be a reason why kb867801 didnt install..

you are right. there's no mention to KB929969 in there (at least, i didn't found one). but: KB929969 is an security update for IE7 and KB931768 is an cumulative update for IE7. if is cumulative, it should include any previews update for IE7, right?

This is a reliability update. This update resolves an issue in the Windows Installer (MSI) that can affect performance during software updates.

Along with this Windows Installer fix you'll also need the Windows Update component fix (if people still use Windows/Microsoft Update, a moot point on here, I guess).

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.

    • Not sure what country you’re in but in many countries you can absolutely jail the sellers behind businesses… in fact I’d say in most countries you can do that
    • I guess we are done since you refuse to read my comment you replied to or my other comment in another thread you were also a part of here.
