Microsoft releases Office 2004 for Mac update
By Jim Dalrymple


Microsoft’s Macintosh Business Unit on Tuesday released an update for  
Office 2004 for Mac. According to Microsoft, this update enhances  
security and stability, including fixes for vulnerabilities that an  
attacker can use to overwrite the contents of your computer’s memory  
with malicious code.

The update also addresses an issue across the suite of applications  
that causes an increase in utilization of system resources when you  
drag a file or object to an Office application window.

Specific applications received updates as well. An issue was fixed in  
Excel that caused it to unexpectedly open workbooks or other files  
when the application was opened. PowerPoint unexpected quits have  
been resolved and a problem that caused Entourage to stop responding  
for several minutes during ordinary use has been fixed.

The update is available using the Auto Update feature in Office.
