RSSOffice 2003 SP2 Adds Phishing Blocker
By Nate Mook | Published September 27, 2005, 12:30 PM
Microsoft on Tuesday quietly slipped out Service Pack 2 for Office 2003, which includes a number of security and performance improvements for the productivity suite. Among the new additions is a Phishing Protection feature for Outlook that filters out e-mails trying to steal personal information.
SP2 is a cumulative update that combines previously released patches and Office 2003 Service Pack 1. Microsoft says stability improvements have been made based on feedback received from the Online Crash Analysis tool. Those running the Multilingual User Interface Pack will need to install an additional update that will be available at a later date.

Have tried auto update and office update from the microsoft site but each time the update simply fails to install.
Had to repair the office installation and rerun the update to get it to install, what a Mess.

You can also download SP2 by going to Microsoft Update (not windows update).

P.S. If you haven't converted over to microsoft update, please click on the link on the right hand side of the windows update page to activate.

Failed to install on a Win 2003 server (tried 4 times) not only that but this is a WUS as well (Windows Update Server) so the server downloads all updates for what you want (windows/office/exchange/sql etc etc etc for all OS 2000, XP, 2003) automagically and distributes them to my network ........ All network PCs updated no problem, but this one :( bah no way ....... Cut a long story short for diagnosis --- end result here was REMOVE front page component from office !! Update goes on, reinstall FP
Only posting this for future time travellers, I found this thread with a google when trying to fix mine. :)
Have a nice day

I don't understand a word you're saying but this is what's going on for me:
The Outlook Junk Email and the Outlook SP2 updates don't seem to want to install. They will DL fine. I also tried installing the full versions and it said the installation failed. I tried installing them one at a time and it failed and last but not least I tried rebooting (2 or 3 times) and alas! It still failed. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hey groundst,
Sounds like you will need to manually uninstall and then reinstall Office to resolve the corruption in your Office installation. If you know what you are doing, the whole thing takes about ten minutes.
Once you reinstall Office, the update installation should succeed without difficulty.
