Question for Newt

[kleinboet]

I checked my add/remove programs for Windows updates and saw this one:

Windows XP hotfix (SP2) [see Q329115 for more information]

Is this the BIG download?

[Gray-Catchpole]

i think thats just one of the new bits that can be downloded from windows update, that is included in sp2(they use the sp2 remark as a sort of a date thing), could be wrong, whats the size Kleinboet, in my add remove progs, sp2(the full version) doesnt show.

[Gray-Catchpole]

yea its a sucurity update, just part of sp2, microsoft say

 

This update resolves the "Certificate Validation Flaw Could Enable Identity Spoofing" vulnerability in Windows 2000. Download now to help prevent an attacker from attempting identity spoofing using certificates.

 

very informative isnt it lolol

 

its a really old update though, from 2002, before sp2 was even thoght of, so i think it probably hasnt been updated since then, could be that it cant be improved, or hasnt been so far.
