Microsoft issued a cumulative security update for Internet Explorer, replacing several earlier security updates. The Redmond, Wash.-based company rated the update "critical."
The update replaces a February 28th cumulative update affecting Windows XP Service Pack 2, Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1, Windows XP Professional x64 Edition, Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition family, and Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1 for Itanium-based Systems.
Along with the update, Microsoft released a compatibility patch for Enterprise users who require more time to prepare for the Active X update.
The compatibility patch will function until a subsequent Internet Explorer update is available in June. The changes made to Internet Explorer in relation to Active X will become permanent after the June update.
A complete list of affected software and software components are available at the full bulletin page. Updates can be downloaded there as well.
