A couple known issues with February patches

Thanks to Dan Conley at Microsoft for this information…

“First, as some of you have already noticed, the wsusscan.cab files were a bit delayed in getting released. They can’t be created until all of the content on the live MU site has been fully replicated (this ensures that the content in the cab files fully matches what is live on MU) and we had a slight delay in that process today, so the cab files weren’t live until about 1:55pm PST.

Second, I wanted to call your attention to a minor issue around detection with today’s updates. Specifically, there’s a minor issue around detection and MS07-009. Windows 2000 SP4 customers who have applied this security update and then perform a scan using MBSA, SMS2003 with the ITMU, or WSUS will get a report back erroneously saying that all languages were applied rather than just the language versions that were applied.

When this happens, the correct update has been applied and the protections are in place: it’s an issue around detection reporting only and we are working to address this issue.“
