krose Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 (edited) KB909520 is an optional non-critical update on my XP SP3 and 2K SP4 machines. Edited April 6, 2009 by krose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyp Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 Let's give this update a few days to see if it's true. There are plenty of occasions that things like this happen. On top of it all, I don't see why a hotfix from 2005 is coming to light many years later. I plan on updating the list after patch Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommyp Posted April 12, 2009 Author Share Posted April 12, 2009 Thanks for the update mukke. To all - Question 1 - Is KB909520 a valid update? Or is msft pulling our leg?Question 2 - Can someone compile a list of IE8 updates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrofLuigi Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Is KB909520 a valid update?It's a valid update BUTOr is msft pulling our leg?seems like that to me: they're trying to push their new (vista+) 'way' of doing things. So the real question is:whether exist any hardware (smart card) that requires this new functionality and wouldn't work without it (won't work the old way)?GL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brimborium Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 (edited) There seems to be a problem with Windows 2000 and the new DX9 hotfix (KB961373): hfslip 1.7.9_beta_h doesn't seem to recognize it as DX-specific while slipstreaming, i.e. unlike KB951698-v2 it will be extracted like a normal hotfix, and is also offered on Microsoft Update afterwards. The rest of this week's patchday seems to work fine though.My config:Win2k Pro GermanIE6 SP1 + WMP 6.4DX9c original releaseMDAC 2.81 SP1MSXML 4.0 SP2 + 6.0 SP2 Edited April 17, 2009 by Brimborium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
