134888 2003-04-10 21:25:00 Hi ya - I have Windows XP home.

I have just got the following on my updates.

Security Update Microsoft Virtual Machine (Microsoft VM)

This update helps resolve a vulnerability in the microsoft virtual machine .................................................. ....................
............. After you have installed this item it cannot be removed.

Can someone tell me is this needed if I have SP1? Do I need it anyway?
Can it not be deleted by doing a system restore?

How do you know what update you need and which you don't?

Thanks heaps :)

Non-security updates are optional depending upon which features of Windows you use.
