Default Security Update for Outlook Express released 11 May 2010

Was OE or Wal-Mail open when you installed KB978542 on the laptop?

However, this month's Critical Updates has raised an interesting
issue. The package included the Windows Malicious Software
Removal Tool - May 2010 (KB890830) and the Security Update for
Windows XP (KB978542). There were no other items.

I have two Win XP (SP3) computers (a desktop and a laptop). I
allowed Windows Update to download and install both items. The
laptop prompted for a restart. The desktop computer did not. I
wonder why.

And is this in with our automatic updates or do we have to

If you'd closed OE before installing the update, a reboot wouldn't be
required.

Default Security Update for Outlook Express released 11 May 2010

I close all programs before doing any updates (I'm configured to be
notified; I go to Microsoft Update myself). I have three computers running
WinXP fully updated. Here's what happened with the latest update:

desktop computer, XP Home, needed to restart
laptop computer, XP Pro, needed to restart
netbook, XP Home, didn't need to restart

There is a very easy way to prevent it from asking repeatedly for
a re-start. Restart your computer !!

However, this month's Critical Updates has raised an interesting
