46.)  Security Bulletin MS06-021
Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer (916281)*+

* - Microsoft is releasing an additional security update included with MS06-023 (917344). Microsoft recommends that you install both security updates at the same time, as the MS06-021 (913281) update could expose the JScript vulnerability or cause application compatibility issues. Why didn't Microsoft bundle these two packages and release them as one patch?  Because Microsoft doesn't care about making it as easy as possible for Window's Users to update their software.

+ - This security update replaces the cumulative update for Internet Explorer, MS06-013 (912812). This security update also replaces the compatibility patch KB917425. That compatibility patch temporarily returned Internet Explorer to the previous functionality for handling ActiveX controls, to help users who needed more time to prepare for the ActiveX update changes necessitated by Microsoft's infringement of Eolas' browser plug-in patent. This security update replaces that compatibility patch, and makes the ActiveX changes permanent. This is yet another clear example of Microsoft's monopoly screwing everybody because of its illegal activities. We all have to change, because Microsoft is the biggest IP thief on the planet!
