2 - Microsoft Updates - On Tuesday, January 9, 2007, Microsoft released the critical updates listed below for Microsoft Office and Windows XP. To install these updates, as well as any previous updates you may have missed, start Internet Explorer, click on the TOOLS, select MICROSOFT UPDATE and perform a CUSTOM installation. (Note: The Microsoft Update site may ask to perform a validation of your Windows installation, no updates can be installed until this validation has taken place.)
If Internet Explorer 7 appears in the list of available updates we recommend that you install it as well but with the caution that IE7 will take some getting used to as its interface differs significantly from earlier versions of Internet Explorer.

Update for Outlook 2003 Junk Email Filter (KB925534)
