It's on Windowsupdate NOW (see thread topic). Link, from Microsoft advisory I just got here:

For folks with SP2 already installed, expect three more updates (SEE MS04-044 and MS04-045 for more info), those with XP SP1 might well have more waiting for them . They are classed as Important, rather than Critical, but are needed definitely as they address issues that have been discussed as much needed to be fixed. They are merely important because a large volume of boxes have not yet been compromised due to what they fix. But quite a few folks have been clamoring for these fixes for quite a while, and for all of them, exploit proof code has been published on the web. I'd treat this as a VERY IMPORTANT update set. EVEN if you have XP SP2.

I just installed mine, and had the XP SP2 security center on my XP SP2 box tell me about them in the middle of WindowsUpdating....
