| subject: | wga updates - 4th Tuesday of the month |
From: "Rich Gauszka" http://forums.microsoft.com/Genuine/ShowPost.aspx?PageIndex=3&SiteID=25&PostID= 510421&PageID=2 Hi Gus, You are correct that the 2nd Tuesday of each month is when all new security updates are released. The 4th Tuesday of each month is reserved to distribute other high priority updates, of which WGA Notifications (KB 905474) is classified. All of the WGA Notifications releases have taken place on the 4th Tuesday (1/24, 2/28, 4/25, 6/27). The WGA Notifications update that we published on 6/27 is the general availability release. This release includes a revised EULA which is more user friendly (and not all legalese) and based upon customer concern, the removal of the download of the settings file which told the Notifications app to run or not KB 905474 is an optional update (published on the 4th Tuesday) and that is why it does not show up in the June 2006 Security Update Bulletin that is published. We do realize that administrators (and users) rely on Windows Update to keep their systems up to date. We do not take this lightly. When you have a free moment, take a look at this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/894199 - The target audience of this KB is administrators who use WSUS (Windows Server Update Services) to maintain their networks with secuirty patches, etc. Find the link on the page for New non-security content and it will outline everything that was published that is high-priority, non-security that was made available on each 4th Tuesday release. Let me know if you have any other questions or feedback and I will do my best to assist you.
