I to use Balarc and i to have a number of lets say items it says i'm missing 3 to be exact and one is a must have that refuses to install.
When ever i go to the Update site for Microsoft i make sure i read each item it finds for me before i download or install i use custom instead express just for that reason that way i pick what i want from all the downloads not just the ones windows wants me to install i have 2 i have told update to not bother me with as they pertain to developers some thing im am not.
So my toughts are to read up on what it is telling you if it don't pertain to you and you'll know if you know whats installed on your computer and if it for something you don't do or use just click on do not show this update again and ignore balarc as i do!

I don't know what that specific one is for or does,but I have my pc set for auto updates & I accept what MS sends my way.
I know alot of people are picky,but no matter how many times i read what they are for or do,it still don't make sense to me. Just my 2 cents on it.
Oh, www.belarc.com I think you can also go to (win xp) start>programs>accessories>system tools & click on system information. :hi:

Well?... I believe so? answered what I received..?

On the update.....it appears to be re certain software.. Customers who use CAPICOM or BizTalk 2004....... HA...I surely dunno HO... Can you tell if you have Capicom on your machine?...............
I did read that is is a Microsoft Active X control....networking and such....then gets sophisticated....

Could ask about it in PC Help...whatcha think?................


Will stir up some margaritas...and see what else is said............:) Yooo Hooo..

Here is what this missing security update applies to;

• CAPICOM>>> This will enable every environment that supports ActiveX to use Microsoft Cryptographic technologies, including web pages that are opened with Microsoft Internet Explorer or any other web browser that supports ActiveX.
• Platform SDK Redistributable: CAPICOM

• Microsoft BizTalk Server 2004 Service Pack 2
"BizTalk", is a business process management server.
• Microsoft BizTalk Server 2004 Service Pack 1, when used with:
Microsoft BizTalk Server 2004 Developer Edition
Microsoft BizTalk Server 2004 Enterprise Edition
Microsoft BizTalk Server 2004 Partner Edition
Microsoft BizTalk Server 2004 Standard Edition

If none of this applies to you...it sure doesn't to me...then ignore it.
