Update for Microsoft Outlook (KB910721) – Is it a hoax?

For two days now, I’ve been receiving a rather official looking email from Microsoft regarding the need to update Outlook. It looks so real it even made me wonder.

Well, do NOT be fooled. It is a hoax! Do NOT click on any link or you will be downloading a trojan virus to your computer.

Even I know better. Microsoft rarely sends out an email regarding updates. You should get these directly from the Microsoft site. Your Automatic Update would catch this if it was real.

If, like me, you are really curious. Type the heading or enough information into a Google  search and you will surely get confirmation one way or the other.
