OverviewThe
Outlook 98 Java Permissions Security Update protects you from a vulnerability in
Microsoft Outlook® 98 that allows HTML e-mail messages to launch an instance of
your Internet browser with security settings at a decreased level. Because
malicious Java code could potentially execute from HTML e-mail, this update will
set "Java permissions" for the Microsoft Virtual Machine to "Disable Java" for
the Restricted Sites zone. This will not impact the way your computer interacts
with Java in normal Web browsing.
Note Before you install the Java Permissions Security Update, you must install the Outlook 98 E-mail Security Update. Note To install this update, you must have administrator-level privileges on the machine you are using. If you are not an administrator, you can manually update the security settings in your browser by using the procedure below. If you do not have the Microsoft VM heading then the manual procedure and update do not need to be applied to your computer. Change security settings in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 or later
