Robin,

As with Defender Updates it is unlikely they will come out before 11:30am
PST, though it has happen a couple of times.
Based on Past experience I would say start checking about 12:00

When you are able to download the MSMSRT that's a good sign that it's close.

Edit 1: That should have said CDT
Edit 2: The MS MSRT is Now available, so it should be soon.

I just got 7 at 1:45 EDST. I only run XP Pro with IE6, no Vista or WD.

That's interesting. I have the same set up as you (XP Pro, IE6) and only
got one update (KB980830) + 3 Office 2007 ones.

The difference is.... I have now installed SP3 (RC2 'Refresh')
 
It looks like XP Home with IE7 gets five (5) plus the tool (MSRT)

is this one 944338 only if you run ie 6?
i run ie 7 and on both computers it did not come up with this update
robin
 
but i did find out this
if you are running vbscript.dll & jscript.dll version 5.7.0.5730
you will not see this update
it is in c:/windows/system32
if you want to check it
and it seems a whole lot of people who see this update cannot do it

Same here (XP SP2, IE7). No drama at all.
 
Must be your SP3, I only have SP2. God I hate some of this technology, it
makes me crazy. LOL
 
that is why you needed the security update
this particular update is for those who have 5.6
those who have 5.7 will not see the update.
I just did the ms security updates on 3 xp pro sp2
2 of them are running ie 7 and the version for those two dll are 5.7
my notebook which is running ie6 saw this update and its dll version was 5.6

WHat i am wondering if you are running ie7 will you see the update?
I have to do 15 more computers over the next few days.
some are running ie7, some ie6
I will let you know if the reason of having ie7 makes the difference
I had no problem installing this update as others did, but again i still
havde 15 to do and hope i do not run into the problem others had trying to
install it.

and if yet how did it go? especially on xp
Click to expand...

Got the ones that I wanted, Robin since I always run a Custom Scan.
No issues on all three of my XP SP2 boxes.

That's the only one that failed on here, all the other six installed without
a problem, did have to do a reboot. I'm not worried about the missing one as
I never use Outlook anyway. <g>

The OL Junkmail KB, Joan?
If you don't use Outlook - delete the update and ignore it when you run WU.
