-----------------

Executive Summary

This security update resolves a privately reported vulnerability in Microsoft WordPad and Microsoft Office text converters. The vulnerability could allow remote code execution if a specially crafted Word 97 file is opened in WordPad or Microsoft Office Word. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain the same privileges as the user. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer privileges on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative privileges.

----------------

Extended support for Office 2k ended July 14/2009 (and the office-update website was terminated Aug 1/2009).

MS therefore will not say if Word 2K is effected by this vulnerability.

Anyone know if the Word 2002 patch (and even the win-2k wordpad patch) are useful / compatible with win-9x / office-2k?
