Source: Out-of-Band Release to Address Microsoft Security Advisory 2963983 - MSRC - Site Home - TechNet BlogsAt approximately 10 a.m. PDT, we will release an out-of-band security update to address the issue affecting Internet Explorer (IE) that was first discussed in Security Advisory 2963983. This update is fully tested and ready for release for all affected versions of the browser.
The majority of customers have automatic updates enabled and will not need to take any action because protections will be downloaded and installed automatically. If you’re unsure if you have automatic updates, or you haven’t enabled Automatic Update, now is the time.
For those manually updating, we strongly encourage you to apply this update as quickly as possible following the directions in the released security bulletin.
We have made the decision to issue a security update for Windows XP users. Windows XP is no longer supported by Microsoft, and we continue to encourage customers to migrate to a modern operating system, such as Windows 7 or 8.1. Additionally, customers are encouraged to upgrade to the latest version of Internet Explorer, IE 11.
Please join us tomorrow at 11 a.m. PDT for a webcast where we will present information on the bulletin.

Yep! Got that security update kb2964358 in Windows Update right now!

- Install security update 2929437, and then install security update 2964358.

Updating!
I'm more than confused! I just forced a Check for Updates 'cuz I didn't have anything new, what I got is KB2964358 & it's NOT checked. I'm still on IE9, is that why I got a different KB#? Evidently all the info from MS in Brinks post deals with IE11. I've thought about upping to IE10 or IE11 but the forum is loaded with posts about problems with both. I'm about to the point of throwing this @#$% machine out the window.
That update is for IE6 through IE11, you have to have KB2929437 installed first though.
Description of the security update for Internet Explorer for systems that have security update 2929437 installed: May 1, 2014Description of the security update for Internet Explorer for systems that have security update 2929437 installed: May 1, 2014
It is a bit confusing with the different KB numbers, but that update applies to you if you have the previously mentioned KB2929437 installed.
M$ Security Bulletin describes M$14-021 as "Critical" yet in WU result it's left "unchecked" by default.
Huh?
