Tech Outpost

OK,  so I am being a little paranoid.

Today's Microsoft updates included a recommended update kb 2699779.  When I click the link for more information I get this message -  "Sorry, but we couldn't find the page that you requested."  The only link is this thread,  and nobody has given a definite answer as what this update does.  I have installed this update.

Should I worry?

Thanks,  Dave.

Cheers Quads,  (he says while wiping sweat from his brow)

I was hoping that was the case.  I can relax now.

It's basically a Public Beta of the next MS Office to come

Office 14.* = 2010
