The documentation on symantec's website is very clear. If you run a successful Liveupdate the patches will be installed. Further the affected products are listed. Personally I feel it is quite impressive how quickly they "symatec" responded. It took them less than 2 months to patch these vulnerabilites. Wow...It takes some software companies years to patch holes if they even do!! Hope this helps as I was concerned at first as well. <span class="mt-export2wp"></span> linkage: <a href="http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/security/Content/2004.03.19.html" rel="nofollow">http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/security/Content/2004.03.19.html</a> <span class="mt-export2wp"></span> <a href="http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/security/Content/2004.04.20.html" rel="nofollow">http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/security/Content/2004.04.20.html</a> <span class="mt-export2wp"></span> <a href="http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/security/Content/2004.05.12.html" rel="nofollow">http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/security/Content/2004.05.12.html</a> <span class="mt-export2wp"></span> Let me squash this for you.
