Do I need to install Office 2003 updates for Window 7?

[Gracious]

I have a new computer with Window 7 operating system. I used my original disk
and product code to install Office 2003 and it seemed to go well. Now I am
wonering if I need to go back and install Office 2003 updates. I am
primarily worried about Office 2003 security but thinking maybe Windows 7
takes care of that. If Windows 7 does not, which ones need to be used to
update and how do I get access to them?

Yes, you need to install all the security updates and service pack 3 to the
Office 2003 install.

You can download the stand alone SP 3 here:

Once this is installed you then need to update using Microsoft Update.

Yes, you need them. Nothing to do with Windows 7 security. You get them
through Windows update.
