Hello

Checking all client computers in our local domain with Baseline Security
Analizer, I get the following report signed as 'critical'
''Security updates that the tool cannot confirm as installed on the scanned
computer are marked with a blue asterisk''
One of them is 'MS04-028 Buffer Overrun in JPEG Processing '. But when I
check the update on a computer, it is installed.
Is this something that I must be worried about?
Thanks
Regards
Miha

Qfecheck will show if all updates have been installed properly or not.

properly installed an
update, but had not, and are now experiencing a problem.]]

That update in particular is a bit strange. It's not actually an update, but
a scanner used to scan for vulnerabilities across your computer.
