| One can, of course, choose not to install all the components of MS Office.
| For example, you can elect not to install Excel. What happens if there is an
| Office Security Update that is directed to an uninstalled Office component
| and you download and install the update? Does it really update the Office
| component? Does it stay on your hard drive until you elect to install the
| Office component and then update it? Or something else?
