August 20, 200224 yr Its here! SP-2 includes new security updates that enhance the protection of Office Web components from hackers, and an Excel 2002 update that prevents the loss of digital signatures when auto-saving spreadsheets.The service pack also include security updates already released, including those that prevent Word from running ActiveX controls when the user is using Word to edit e-mail messages and has configured Outlook to disable script. It also provides additional protection against exploits in Excel, which could potentially run macros without warning.On the stability front, SP-2 will include an update for Microsoft Word 2002 that corrects an issue in which the application may unexpectedly close when using a VBA macro to paste a graphic or shape; an update for PowerPoint 2002 that corrects the application from unexpectedly closing when clicking on a link to view a different slide in the slide sorter view; and an update for Outlook 2002 that stops the application from unexpectedly closing when a mail recipient from an e-mail message is added to the user's Contacts list.
