Re: Faulty detection routine for MS08-024 (KB947864)?

Hi,

You are not alone, I maintain 3 Windows XP SP2 machines with IE7 installed
on them. None of them were offered KB947864 on Patch tuesday, I ended up
having to download it manually and install it on all three machines...

I am in the process of validating the April 08 patches and have found that
on
numerous machines with IE 7 installed, MS08-024 is not detected as
necessary.
I am using ITMU v3 for SMS to deploy these patches, but visiting Windows
Update with the same computer also shows that MS08-024 - Cumulative update
for IE 7 is not needed. None of the machines actually have MS08-024
installed. I have verified this by looking at the version of URLMON.DLL
on
these machines and it is older than the 7.0.6000.20772. The version on
the
machine is 7.0.6000.20733

Here is the log entry from SMSWusHandler.log showing that MS08-024 is
detected as "INSTALLED". This is not correct. it is not installed. If I
remove the February cumulative update for IE 7, then run the scan again,
the
patch is detected as needed. Windows Update is not correctly detecting
the
abcense of MS08-024.



This is a Top-level update.
