BigFix has modified content in the Patches for Windows (English) /
Enterprise Security site. The MS08-078 patches for Vista/Server 2008
contained the file "mshtml.tlb" which was a version less than the file
applied by MS08-073. Microsoft has confirmed that both versions do not
contain the vulnerability. For more information see:

<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/960714> under "Known issues with this
security update".

BigFix has modified MS08-073 content to check for the versions of file
"mshtml.tlb" that are included in MS08-078 to avoid becoming relevant
after application of MS08-078:

ID: 807321	MS08-073: Cumulative Security Update for Internet
Explorer - IE 7 - Windows Vista Gold/SP1
ID: 807323	MS08-073: Cumulative Security Update for Internet
