There were some issues with the digital signatures on some of the IE updates that were preventing installation. For that reason the updates were removed from the download center. Windows Update, Microsoft Update, SUS and WSUS are not affected. Will try to post an update as soon as more information is available.
Update: the bulletin was updated today and the downloads restored to the download center.
