    Lightbulb Windows XP in update loop

    FYI...

    Windows XP in update loop
    - http://h-online.com/-1582649
    23 May 2012 - "Users of Windows XP are reporting more problems with recent automatic updates. Three security updates for .NET Framework 2.0 and 3.5 are at the centre of the problem, labelled as patches KB2518664, KB2572073 and KB2633880 in Windows XP's automatic update feature.
    On affected systems, the installation of these patches proceeds without error but after a short time, the update service says it would like to install them again and will keep reinstalling the patches if allowed. Microsoft's general advice in this situation is to reset Windows Update components*, though it has yet to offer any specific advice. It is interesting to note that the three patches in question were -not- released on Microsoft's official patch day."

    Question RE: MS Bulletin Advance Notification - August 2012

    FYI...

    Critical non-security update to be released
    - https://blogs.technet.com/b/gladiato...edirected=true
    9 Aug 2012 - "... Next week a security fix will be widely distributed which will prevent use of certificates which use weak (less than 1024 bit) RSA keys. Microsoft will issue a critical non-security update (KB 2661254) for Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 R2. The update will block the use of cryptographic keys that are less than 1024 bits. You could potentially run into issues as it may cause outages for those who have services that leverage IIS or any other application or service (client side or server side) if those services rely on those weak certificates..."
