For those of us who have Office Excel 2003, it seems like the
"obvious" workaround is to install SP3.

Does anyone know of a reason not to?

Does anyone know what feature(s) might no longer work or work
differently as a result of whatever change in SP3 that insulates the
user from the vulnerability?
Having been on the system development side of such security, I
appreciate the security sensitivity, ergo the limited information
about the vulnerability. But I'm just wondering if any Excel expert
can add to what the blog says.
