Microsoft Updates Vista Before Roll-out
Microsoft released several updates to Windows Vista on Monday, the day
before the new operating system debuted for consumers and landed on retail
shelves. None of the updates was a security fix.
The five updates for the 32-bit version of Vista -- one was immediately
replaced Tuesday with an update to the update -- fix difficulties installing
the operating system on PCs with more than 3 Gbytes of memory, troubles
connecting with a VPN (virtual private network) server, and performance
problems with Internet Explorer 7 and its anti-phishing feature.

The largest of the five updates, however, is one that addresses
incompatibility issues for a host of applications and games, ranging from
Adobe's PhotoShop to Zoo Tycoon. Multiple Microsoft titles -- Microsoft
Money, Outlook 2003 -- are also on the list. Others of note include Opera
9.02, IBM Rescue and Recovery with Rapid Restore, Roxio Easy Media Creator
7.5, and RealPlayer.

Thanks,
Brad.
