I have had a chance to review these patches in much more detail now. I want to let you all know that Microsoft’s rating of these are right on the mark! These are critical! Most of the vulnerabilities addressed in these patches will allow the attacker FULL access to your computers. We are talking about holes big enough to drive a semi through.

The other thing to be aware of..... The MS04-011 patch covers a wide range of vulnerabilities:
LSASS
LDAP
PCT
WinLogon
Metafiles
Help and Support Center
Utility Manager
Windows Management
Local Descriptor Tables
H.323
Virtual DOS machine
SSP
SSL
ASN.1

I applaud MS's attempt to reduce the number of patches, but it seems to me like including this many fixes in a single patch is just asking for trouble. What if a single fix in this patch breaks something you need. Then you have to uninstall the whole patch. I think they should at least make these readily available as separate patches to mitigate the possible problem that could occur.
