ELM Bulletin - February 14, 2007

Microsoft Security Updates

On Tuesday, February 13, 2007, Microsoft released several critical updates for Microsoft Office, Windows XP and Server 2003. Because of the critical nature of the vulnerabilities  addressed we recommend that you install the updates at your earliest convenience. Please visit this Microsoft website for more details:

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms07-feb.mspx

To install any updates start Internet Explorer, click on 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.) Once the updates have been installed your workstation or server may need to be restarted.

We recommend that you install Internet Explorer 7 if it appears in the list of available updates but caution you that IE7 will take some getting used to as its interface is significantly different from earlier versions of Internet Explorer. If you would rather not install IE7 at this time simply deselect it from the list of available updates.

As always, please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about this or any other issue.

Past ELM Bulletins are available from our website, please forward them to anyone you wish.
