Hotfix for missing Norton Icon -should we apply if no problem?

I am on vista 32bit ultimate NISD 2010, and I do NOT have the icon problem, but the patch info indicated that the patch would be rolled into a future on-line update----So

should those of us that do nopt have this problemj apply the patch anywayto prevent the problerm in the future?
