INTERNET EXPLORER: Cumulative Patch for Internet Explorer (MS03-040 | KB828750)

INTERNET EXPLORER: Cumulative Patch for Internet Explorer (MS03-040 | KB828750)
This patch for Internet Explorer combines all of the patches for IE that Microsoft has previously released, including two new problems. The first one fixes a huge problem that happens with popup windows. Don't quote me on this one, but I believe this fixes the "$5/min dialup redirect" issue everyone has been talking about. The other problem deals with the way IE tries to figure out the result when a website tries to manipulate data with XML. Either way, this one was urgent enough to be released on a Friday, so make sure you update ASAP.
Patches: Windows Server 2003  |  IE 6 SP1  |  IE 6 (Windows XP)  |  IE 5.5 SP2  |  IE 5.01 (Windows 2000)
