Support for Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1) ends on July 12, 2011. To continue receiving security updates for Windows, make sure you're running Windows Vista with Service Pack 2 (SP2). For more information, refer to this Microsoft web page: Support is ending for some versions of Windows
This article describes a nonsecurity update that implements Extended Protection for Authentication in installations of Outlook Express and Windows Mail.
When Extended Protection for Authentication is enabled, authentication requests are bound to both the Service Principal Names (SPN) of the server to which the client tries to connect to and, if present, to the outer Transport Layer Security (TLS) channel over which the Integrated Windows Authentication occurs.
This update will be offered only to systems that already have update 968389 installed because update 968389 contains the base Security Support Provider Interface (SSPI) update, which is a prerequisite.
No configuration is required after you install this update. After this update is installed, Outlook Express and Windows Mail will automatically support Extended Protection for Authentication if update 968389 has also been installed correctly.
For more information about update 968389, visit the following Microsoft website:

Service Pack 1 is integrated into the release version of Windows Server 2008. Therefore, RTM milestone files apply only to Windows Vista. RTM milestone files have a 6.0.0000.xxxxxx version number.
GDR service branches contain only those fixes that are widely released to address widespread, critical issues. LDR service branches contain hotfixes in addition to widely released fixes.
The MANIFEST files (.manifest) and the MUM files (.mum) that are installed for each environment are listed separately. MUM and MANIFEST files, and the associated security catalog (.cat) files, are critical to maintaining the state of the updated component. The security catalog files (attributes not listed) are signed with a Microsoft digital signature.
