Fixlet Description:  Microsoft has released a cumulative security patch
that resolves several newly discovered, publicly and privately reported
vulnerabilities. If a user is logged on with administrative user rights,
an attacker who successfully exploited the most severe of these
vulnerabilities could take complete control of an affected system. After
downloading and installing this patch, affected computers will no longer
be susceptible to these vulnerabilities. 

Important Note: This patch was re-released on August 24, 2006 to address
known issues with the original patch. The action below deploys the
revised version of the patch. If you have deployed the original version
of the patch, the "MS06-042: REVISED PATCH" Fixlet message will become
relevant. Microsoft recommends that all affected computers install the
new patch. See the Caveats and FAQ section of the security bulletin for
more information.
