Office 2004 gets a security boost with the Mac 11.5.6 update, which corrects a vulnerability that could allow a remote baddie to overwrite your computer's memory. The 2008 version sees the same security fix in its Mac 12.2.3 update, plus a host of other minor upgrades, such as resolving text spacing issues in documents that originated on Windows system."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1257955461.usr105634.jpg" /></p><p>This also helps with instability in Word, as well as Excel and PowerPoint. Entourage is also upgraded with an improved junk mail filter. The <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976830" target="_blank">2004 update</a> requires OS X 10.2.8 or newer and also that the previous update 11.5.5 be installed. For the <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976828" target="_blank">2008 update</a> you need OS X 10.4.9 or newer with the previous 12.1.0 update having been installed prior to this one. </p>
