Security Updates Support: If you have any questions regarding the patch or
its implementation, you should contact Product Support Services in the
United States at 1-866-PCSAFETY. International customers should contact
their local subsidiary.

Update sources: As always, download the updates only from the vendors'
website - visit Windows Update and Office Update or Microsoft Update. You
may also get the updates thru Automatic Updates functionality in Windows.
Note: Don't be a victim of spoofed emails. Read "How to tell whether a
security e-mail message is really from Microsoft"

Recommendations: Microsoft advises customers to install the latest product
releases, security updates, and service packs to remain as secure as
possible. Older products, such as Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, may not meet
today's more demanding security requirements. It may not be possible for
Microsoft to provide security updates for older products. More info at
Support Lifecycle website.

Webcast: Microsoft will host a webcast tomorrow. The webcast focuses on
addressing your questions and concerns about the security bulletins.
Therefore, most of the live webcast is aimed at giving you the opportunity
to ask questions and get answers from their security experts.

Oh, how I love Black Tuesdays - and thanks for the advance warning, but
perhaps I have been let off this month - no yellow shield as yet :-)
and it would appear that WU/MU Home is suffering from its monthly bout of
constipation - the little train keeps coming out of the tunnel and going
back into it. Perhaps it will stop in the station in a couple of days.
