These updates must be downloaded from the Microsoft.com download centre or Windows Update. See the individual bulletins for details.

    Hi robo
    KB832894:was released on the 2-2-04
    and ASN.1 Vulnerability Could Allow Code Execution (828028) was released today. Only these updates which are regarded CRITICAL by your O/S are offered at the windows download site and not minor which are not offered. For example there are four updates for today but windows will automatically download one of them[828028) The other three may not be needed by your system as all systems can be very different in there set up. I hope i have explained it OK :)
