QUOTE: So far there’ve been no issues with a vast majority of the updates, but one issue we are tracking has to do with MS06-025, very specifically related to dial up users that use dial up scripting, a very old piece of functionality not widely in use anymore. (Users using dial up for Internet or Remote Access Services who do not use dial-up scripting or terminal windows are unaffected.
