KB918414
Microsoft July updates included KB918419 for Excel. I received an alert from
Spy Sweeper that a Browser Helper Object was to be installed. Since I did not see why Excel would need a BHO, I denied the change. The update failed. Should I allow the change? Thanks Frank C Dell Dimension 8400 Win XP SP 2 I. E. 6.0 SP 2 Office 2003 SP 2 |

It might be the change fixing the security hole in Excel (one of 3 reported
recently). Could you not just install it, then remove it after? -- HTH Bob Phillips (replace somewhere in email address with gmail if mailing direct) "Frank C" wrote in message ...

This problem was solved - on the advice of Spy Sweeper - by turning off the
Spy Sweeper BHO shield and then running the update. "Frank C" wrote: Subject line error - should be KB918419 "Frank C" wrote: Microsoft July updates included KB918419 for Excel.

I can't imagine many of us will also experience the problem, but good on you
for letting us know. -- HTH Bob Phillips (replace somewhere in email address with gmail if mailing direct) "Frank C" wrote in message ...
