Re: Cumulative Security Update for Outlook Express 6 Service Pack 1 (KB837009)

Here is what I have found:

WABMIG.EXE REGRESSED
WABIMP.DLL *NEWER VERSION
WABFIND.DLL REGRESSED
WAB32.DLL *NEWER VERSION
WAB.EXE REGRESSED
Msoert2.dll regressed
Msoeacct.dll regressed
MSOE.exe *NEWER VERSION
inetcomm.dll *NEWER VERSION

*Newer version than what was listed in the manifest, whereas REGRESSED was
an older version. The rest of the file versions matched.
