Notes
- Update rollup 883939 includes the cumulative security fixes that are documented in security bulletin MS05-025. The update rollup also includes hotfixes for Microsoft Internet Explorer that have been released after the release of security bulletin MS04-004 and of security bulletin MS04-025.
- If update rollup 873377, update rollup 889669, or an Internet Explorer hotfix that was released after security bulletin MS04-038 are not installed, and if you want to install the hotfixes that are included in update rollup 883939, you must follow the instructions in Microsoft Knowledge Base article 897225. Otherwise, all Internet Explorer hotfixes that you have installed are removed.
The update rollup 883939 installer verifies whether one or more of the files that are being updated on the computer have previously been updated by an Internet Explorer hotfix. However, the installer detects only hotfixes that were released after security bulletin MS04-038, after update rollup 873377, or after update rollup 889669. Therefore, if you have installed update rollup 873377, update rollup 889669, or an Internet Explorer hotfix that was released after update rollup 873377, the update rollup 883939 installer automatically installs the hotfixes and the security updates that are included in update rollup 883939.
