HOTFIXES: Win2000 SP4, WinXP SP2, WinXP SP3 and Win2003 SP2

[straffin]

Can someone tell me why Windows Update is telling me to install .Net Framework 2.0 security updates even though I have .NET Framework 3.0 installed. Do I have to install these updates?

The .NET Framework versions (1.1, 2.0, 3.0) aren't upgrades... they're different versions that can all exist on a single PC simultaneously. While you may indeed have .NET Framework 3.0 installed, you likely have .NET Framework 2.0 and .NET Framework 1.1 installed as well.

Also, why is Windows Update now telling me to install the following updates even though this list doesn't list them:

Security Update for Microsoft XML Core Services 6.0 and Microsoft XML Core Services 6.0 Service Pack 1 (KB933579), Update for Windows XP (KB934238), and February 2007 CardSpace Update for Windows XP (KB925720).

KB933579 - Looks like this one may have been missed... was released August 14, 2007

KB934238 - This only applies to non-English versions of Windows XP

KB925720 - This only applies to Windows XP with .NET 3.0 installed. I don't know what the list assumes as far as your .NET versions.

Thanks for the help man! I can tell you right now that my system is from a fresh installation without .NET Framework 1.0 and 2.0 installed. Should I install those updates? What KB933579 and 925720? Should I install them?

Okay, .NET 3.0 contains .NET 2.0 (3.0 really is 2.0 plus a few things). .NET 1.1 is a different thing, so if you want to have everything .NET you need 1.1 and 3.0. Since .NET 2.0 is in 3.0, you will see 2.0 updates when they come out.

Well... according to the Internet Explorer Blog, it doesn't seem to include any patches, and they're not pushing it to people who already have it installed, so it's certainly not critical:

From http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2007/10/0...r-7-update.aspx

"With today’s “Installation and Availability Update,” Internet Explorer 7 installation will no longer require Windows Genuine Advantage validation and will be available to all Windows XP users. If you are not already running IE7, you can get it now from the Internet Explorer home page on Microsoft.com, get a customized version from a third-party site, or, if you haven’t already received it via Automatic Updates, this version will be delivered to you as we described previously. If you are already running IE7, you will not be offered IE7 again by Automatic Updates.

Additionally, we’ve made minor changes to IE7 for Windows XP based on customer feedback:

* The menu bar is now visible by default.

* The Internet Explorer 7 online tour has updated how-to’s. Also, the “first-run” experience includes a new overview.

* We’ve included a new MSI installer that simplifies deployment for IT administrators in enterprises. Learn more about it here."

It's hard to tell if it removes any patches, though. MS has been pretty good with not replacing newer files with older ones in their patches and some other installers. I'll try to test this tomorrow and let everyone know (unless someone else tests it first).

That IE7 re-issue does not include any hotfixes, but does allow for installtion of IE7 prior to activation, which means that it can be installed via SVCPACK.INF on retail and OEM versions. Previously a VLK or Royalty OEM version was required.

Did anyone notice the new Hotfixes ??!!

so can someone tell if there are some removed and can make a list of what s new ?

Thanx

Is it possible to install IE7 from svcpack.inf, followed by the cumulative IE update (also from svcpack.inf)? Or is a reboot required before the IE7 updates can be installed?
