In addition, to help customers prioritize monthly security updates with any non-security updates released on Microsoft Update, Windows Update, Windows Server Update Services and Software Update Services on the same day as the monthly security bulletins, we also provide:

• Information about the release of updated versions of the Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool.

• Information about the release of NON-SECURITY, High Priority updates on Microsoft Update (MU), Windows Update (WU), Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) and Software Update Services (SUS). Note that this information will pertain ONLY to updates on Windows Update and only about High Priority, non-security updates being released on the same day as security updates. Information will NOT be provided about Non-security updates released on other days.


On 13 September 2005 Microsoft is planning to release:

Security Updates

• One Microsoft Security Bulletin affecting Microsoft Windows. The highest Maximum Severity rating for this is critical. These updates may require a restart. These updates will be detectable using the Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer (MBSA).


Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool

• Microsoft will release an updated version of the Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool on Windows Update, Microsoft Update, Windows Server Update Services and the Download Center.


Note that this tool will NOT be distributed using Software Update Services (SUS).

Non-security High Priority updates on MU, WU, WSUS and SUS

• Microsoft will release one NON-SECURITY High-Priority Updates for Windows on Microsoft Update (MU), Windows Update (WU), Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) and Software Update Services (SUS).


Although we do not anticipate any changes, the number of bulletins, products affected, restart information and severities are subject to change until released.

Microsoft will host a webcast next week to address customer questions on these bulletins. For more information on this webcast please see below:

Well..........It's been scrapped because of a "Quality Issue", basically the patch has a flaw, and isn't good enough to be released tomorrow, i think there are still some standard updates, and also the malicious software removal tool has an update, but the overly critical one will have to wait until its repaired and made flawless.
