Hmm, that was mentioned in

»IE reborn: Internet Explorer 10 arrives on Windows 7

I installed IE10 and it said it was "downloading updates" (the installer I used is an offline one). When I checked for Windows Updates afterwards (and again just now) and none were indicated. Even this

»Microsoft Security Advisory Notification - February 26, 2013

didn't show up.

Maybe if you installed the IE10 update in Win7 it included the Adobe Flash update within it.

Hmmm i just checked and the same update was waiting for me to download and install it. I don't even have IE10 on any of my systems Win7 32bit or Vista 64bit.

Confirmed here too, no IE10.

This article describes a platform update for Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1) and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. This update improves the features and performance of the following components:
•Direct2D
•DirectWrite
•Direct3D
•Windows Imaging Component (WIC)
•Windows Advanced Rasterization Platform (WARP)
•Windows Animation Manager (WAM)
•XPS Document API
•H.264 Video Decoder
•JPEG XR codec

If you are a Windows 7 DirectX developer who uses the June 2010 DirectX Software Development Kit (SDK), you will have to update your development environments after you install this platform update. The following development .dll files that are associated with the DirectX SDK are incompatible with this platform update:
•D3D10SDKLayers.dll
•D3D11SDKLayers.dll
•D3D10ref.dll
•D2D1debug.dll

IE 10 on Win 7 is not currently available thru Microsoft Update. You must get it from an MS web page:

Well I downloaded the KB2670838 package and it said it was already installed. I looked through the list of installed Windows Updates and couldn't see it there. I have to conclude therefore that it was (silently) installed with IE10.

Thanks, but I'll leave it alone for now. No need for IE except for a site or 2 once in a while.

It's hard to change an old dog's tricks - no time for re-evaluating new software like I used to. The bug has worn off.

Well as I say its not that old dogs can't learn new tricks they're just smart enough to know they don't need to

I may be wrong but I think it's a precursor for IE 10.
Fetched it anyways.
