I believe what Tim was trying to point out, and I missed, is that the
wording for MS security patches needs to better reflect the importance
of those patches, as opposed to the non-security related patches that
might be released.

In this regard I totally agree with Tim. Its important that people get
notified and understand that they should do everything in their power to
get a security hot fix applied asap.

Cheers,
Russ
