Re: Microsoft out-of-band security bulletin September 21, 2012

Thanks. I manually ran Widows update and got the update for IE8. I did have to restart in Windows XP SP3. I did not notice whether a restart would be required in Windows 7. The Win 7 systems are set to auto update, but one has to stay up all the time, though a restart overnight will not hurt things.

Updated on Win 7 - restart required.

It is not necessary to undo/remove the Fix It patch before applying this update.

For those that want to patch and run. Whichever way works best for the user is fine, either way.

Thanks for the info on Win7. Three systems will require restart, plus an XP Pro SP3 system. I guess I should have gone there today, but I am going tomorrow anyway, so I can check on the status of the update(s).
