Just run MU and there was no update. It looks like the re-release only affects Excel 2002 as noted in the revision of the article.
"V2.0 (December 12, 2006): Bulletin updated has been revised and re-released for Microsoft Excel 2002 to address the issues identified in Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 924164." |
