Office 97, 2000, XP, Word, etc. security updates

[techie]

When a fix for a Windows operating system comes up, it's usuallly widely talked about.

What most people don't know is that it's just as important to keep your Office products updated or they can become a security hole as well.

You can get the updates from here  http://office.microsoft.com/OfficeUpdate/default.aspx 

This is really important if you run Outlook, not Outlook Express for email.

Also go here:  http://office.microsoft.com/home/office.as...amp;CTT=98 
and order the free CD with the office updates on it so if you need to reinstall, you don't have to spend days at the update site getting all the updates again.

Thanks for the link plodr, but it isn't working right now. I'll try it again tomorrow.

I think they "sold out". I saw reports within 2 days of the original notice Mitch posted that the CD's were on backorder. Perhaps Microsoft didn't expect that much interest.
