Microsoft released another update for the Internet Explorer. It is supposed to fix some flaws that may occur after installing the cumulative update from the last Patchday, MS09-054. In a knowledgebase article Microsoft explains the issues that may arise:

- The offsetTop calculation for elements that are contained as children of scrolled elements may be reported incorrectly in Windows Internet Explorer 8

- You receive a VBScript “Type Mismatch” script error message in Internet Explorer after you install cumulative security update 974455

Though the Update is not critical, some users may experience the described problems with the last security update. Thus users should install the offered patch – which requires a reboot of the computer.
