Hello Pinal.
Thanks for the Information, I already applied this security Patch two days back.
I wanted to know what will be the changes in these security patches.
I am always scared to apply these security patches… I never know what is logic behind this, I tried to get information about but I could not find it any where ….
if you know any source where I can find actual information about the security patch, not just description.
Thanks,
Imran.
Hey!
Is there an easy way to always know about the latest service pack, cumulative and security updates, as soon as they are publised?
I’m looking for RSS or email messages.
Thanks a lot.

Hi Pinal,
You maintain a great site which answers lot of questions. I downloaded the patch and when I tried installing it fails while applying for SQL Server.
I would appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks,
Ram
