As usual, there is a summary to the today’s Patchday on the TechNet site.

Update

The malicious software removal tool has also been updated and is available only as a single download. As in the last month, this time as well there is an ISO image, which contains all bulletin-updates for all available languages.

Update

As tells Microsoft and some users have noticed already, there are problems when you install MS06-007 via the automatic update channels such as automatic updates, Windows Update, Windows Server Update Services and Systems Management Server 2003 when it is used with the inventory tool for Microsoft updates. The patch itself is fine and protects before the TCP/IP vulnerability. However, a manual installation of the update, which is linked to the security bulletin page, performed his service without any problems.

Update

As in the Microsoft Security Response Center blog to read is, the installation should now work via the automatic update channels.
