If you had all the patched dlls, it was. The problem was, you had no way 
to "prevent" old ones from being installed, if you installed an older 
application than the one you last did, which broke things **badly**, and 
no way to tell it was going to, or tell it to not do it. But, if you got 
the latest patches, you where generally OK. You just didn't want to 
*dare* install anything older after. ;)
