Mac Office 2004 security release by Microsoft
Microsoft releases 12 security fixes
1) <snicker, snicker>
2) What kind of security flaw could this be in the Mac version? (Tried looking on the MS site, couldn't find anything that talks about the Mac version.)
3) If this really does affect the Mac version, could an attacker take "complete control of a person's computer"? A Mac? I realize that the quotes are in two separate paragraphs in the article, so maybe that last aragraph is meant only for Windows users, but still, what does this mean for those of us that use Office on the Mac?
Thanks.

One of those fixes also applies to the 2004 version of Office for Apple Computer Inc.'s Macintosh systems.
All of the patches are to fix weaknesses that could allow an attacker to take complete control of a person's computer.
