    I agree Arie.

    In fact the corresponding update for Win 8.1 is also marked as important. Why ? I don't think anyone else besides MS knows. And its an out of band update. Critical ?

    Quote by "I work for Microsoft" Zeusifer on reddit:

    "It is presumably important for legal and/or political reasons, not technical ones. If Microsoft wants to be able to sell products around the world (and keep in mind that Windows isn't just used by consumers, it's used by businesses, financial companies, and governments), it doesn't do to have products that don't meet current government standards. "
