Does anyone know if you can get this update without having to have Office 2000 installed on the computer? We have outlook 2000 on all of the computers inour office but not Office 2000. I need to install this update to have more protection with the attachments. Does anyone know if you can get this update just for outlook?

Thanks
 
mscallisto, I think we are both wrong!!!
The links we posted both point to the same location/file.
here is a note I found regarding the .exe.....

[tt]To use the Outlook 2000 SR-1 E-mail Security Update, you must have installed Office 2000 SR-1 or Office 2000 Service release 1a (SR-1a) (which includes the original Office 2000 SR-1 update and the Office 2000/Windows 2000 Registry Repair Utility). If you have installed more than one version of Office 2000 on your machine (for example, if you installed Office 20000 Small Business Edition and then later installed Office 2000 professional Service Release 1), all of the installed versions of Office 2000 must be updated to Service Release 1 level before you install this update. If you are not certain, install the Office 2000 Service Release 1a (SR1a) to update your installations of Office 2000 correctly before you install this update.
To ensure the integrity of your Office 2000 installation, the Outlook 2000 SR-1 E-mail Security Update requires access to the Office CD or your network installation location during the installation process.
Download the file from the Microsoft Office Tools on the Web site by clicking the Download Now button (above) and following the instructions in the dialog boxes.
Double-click the out2ksec.exe program file on your hard disk to start the setup program.
Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation[/tt] Jay~

Thats interesting and you may be right.

The only question that comes to mind is wasn't it Office sr2 that forced the security in Outlook 2k?

I only ask because I failed to see reference to 2 in your remarks.

Straighten me out please, it's Friday and I'm beat!

thanks Jay
 
Thanks guys this worked. You have to install office service pack SR1 then you can install the email patch. Thanks for the information anyway. I just had to try a couple of things and it worked. Just wanted to let you know.
 
Well I guess that sorted it!!

Good job on the SR1/2 issue mscallisto, sorry to cause so much confusion on a Friday!! Jay~
