HB,
It only applies to systems that actually installed any of the affected
updates. The problem only occurred with updates that require a WGA check
(and that only affects certain ones such as .NET upgrades). To clarify,
this was a problem with the validation site itself, and not with the
individual updates. My post was to assure anyone who was already affected
by the mess.
Regardless, the problem has been fixed, so it's no longer an issue.
Feel free to go ahead and install at will. :O)
Peace,
GMan
