The following table provides the MBSA detection summary for this security update. Note MBSA 1. For more detailed information, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article The following table provides the SMS detection summary for this security update.
SMS 2. For SMS 2. An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by constructing a specially crafted Web page that could potentially lead to information disclosure if a user visited that page or clicked a link in a specially crafted e-mail message. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could access content from another domain retrieved using the credentials of the user browsing the Web at the client.
In addition, compromised Web sites and Web sites that accept or host user-provided content or advertisements could contain specially crafted content that could exploit this vulnerability. However, user interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability. You can help protect against this vulnerability by changing your settings for the Internet security zone to prompt before running ActiveX controls and active scripting. You can do this by setting your browser security to High.
Note If no slider is visible, click Default Level , and then move the slider to High. Note Setting the level to High may cause some Web sites to work incorrectly. If you have difficulty using a Web site after you change this setting, and you are sure the site is safe to use, you can add that site to your list of trusted sites.
This will allow the site to work correctly even with the high security setting. Alternatively, you can change you settings to prompt before running ActiveX controls only by following these steps:.
Impact of Workaround: There are side effects to prompting before running ActiveX controls. Many Web sites that are on the Internet or on an intranet use ActiveX to provide additional functionality.
For example, an online e-commerce site or banking site may use ActiveX controls to provide menus, ordering forms, or even account statements. Prompting before running ActiveX controls is a global setting that affects all Internet and intranet sites. You will be prompted frequently when you enable this workaround. For each prompt, if you feel you trust the site that you are visiting, click Yes to run ActiveX controls. If you do not want to be prompted for all these sites, use the "Restrict Web sites to only your trusted Web sites" workaround.
What is the scope of the vulnerability? This is an information disclosure vulnerability. What causes the vulnerability? What might an attacker use the vulnerability to do? An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could read cookies or other data from another security zone or domain in Internet Explorer. Who could exploit the vulnerability? An attacker could host a specially crafted Web site that is designed to exploit this vulnerability through Internet Explorer and then persuade a user to view the Web site.
This can also include Web sites that accept user-provided content or advertisements, Web sites that host user-provided content or advertisements, and compromised Web sites. These Web sites could contain specially crafted content that could exploit this vulnerability. In all cases, however, an attacker would have no way to force users to visit these Web sites. Instead, an attacker would have to persuade users to visit the Web site, typically by getting them to click a link in an e-mail message or in an Instant Messenger request that takes users to the attacker's Web site.
It could also be possible to display specially crafted Web content by using banner advertisements or by using other methods to deliver Web content to affected systems. What systems are primarily at risk from the vulnerability? This vulnerability requires that a user is logged on and visits a Web site for any malicious action to occur.
Therefore, any systems where Internet Explorer is used frequently, such as workstations or terminal servers, are at the most risk from this vulnerability. Systems that are not typically used to visit Web sites, such as most server systems, are at a reduced risk.
Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration is a group of preconfigured Internet Explorer settings that reduce the likelihood of a user or of an administrator downloading and running specially crafted Web content on a server.
Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration reduces this risk by modifying many security-related settings. This includes the settings on the Security tab and the Advanced tab in the Internet Options dialog box.
Some of the important modifications include the following:. What does the update do? When this security bulletin was issued, had this vulnerability been publicly disclosed?

If you suspect a particular update could have a bearing on this, proceed as follows. After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, reinstall any updates that may not have been installed properly.
I've made progress in narrowing down the problem. I connected my iMac directly to the cable modem, thus eliminating the Airport, and mail is working properly. As I mentioned earlier, I wasn't able to send mail from either the laptop or the iMac. And I'm guessing that the firmware update I made to the Airport may have been the cause.
I'll reinstall the Airport Firmware update 5. Feb 10, AM in response to kstraitiff In response to kstraitiff Reinstalling the firmware update has not helped.

I also updated the locate database, launch services database, and? Then I updated pre-binding using MainMenu. After starting up, none of the apps in the Office v. X suite would launch.
