Microsoft released the Office 2003 Service Pack 3 just a few hours ago which contains the latest updates for Office 2003. The pack with a size of 117 Megabytes contains 22 security patches and updates as well as the previous two service packs for Office 2003. The main emphasize of this service pack seems to be security related because 14 of the 22 updates are security related.
Besides the security update Office 2003 Service Pack 3 contains also stability improvements which have been implemented after receiving enough user feedback on several issues. There is no Windows Genuine Advantage check before you can download the new service pack and I assume there will also be none when installing it.
All important applications like Word 2003, Excel 2003 and Outlook 2003 receive at least one security update. Cautious users can also download and install updates separately if they feel that they do not want to download the 117 Megabytes.
