Anyone know what this new WinXP update does?!?!

Phantom_24 · Sep 15, 2002, 04:53 PM

Apparently a new update for Win XP SP1 has popped up and it SEEMS to be a security update, yet all links leading to the "explanation" of said security update DO NOT explain what the update is for!! Sorry, but I don't fall for some bogus fixes that MS is not even going to explain what they are for !! That's like taking your car to the dealership and them telling you they need to fix something, but not WHAT they fixed and how much it's gonna cost!!

Here's the "security update article" number: Q327405

Just tells you it's a security update, and that you can't uninstall it ! Nothing more!!

Always makes me vervous when they don't explain the updates clearly!!

I'd feel better if they at least mentioned Buffer Underun or SOMETHING!!

"Anyone know what this new WinXP update does?!?!"

is that a question? or you are trying to warn us not to install that update! or you just
want to tell your story or you are telling us that you are using XP Auto update(well if you do, MS will feel better too).
or what's it?? I don't know....
