Default Windows Updates is offering MS Office 2007 updates - but I have Office 2000 installed (?)

I'm running the automatic updates right now and it's offering me
about a dozen Office 2007 patches / fixes.

Thing is, I've got Office 2000 SR1 premium installed on this
thing.


You may have the 2007 Compatibility Pack installed, so you can view
and edit Office files made with the later version of Office. If
you have the Compatibility Pack installed, it takes updates for
Office 2007.


Yea, I think I did install the compatibility pack at one point.

I downloaded these office 2007 updates and it didn't seem to break
anything...


I downloaded all Office 2000 updates manually and saved them all years
ago. As I figured that one day, Microsoft would remove them from their
servers. There was a SR-1 (which I call SP-1 below), but you have that
one. Then you don't need SP-2, since SP-3 (it is only about 13MB in
size) includes both SP-2 and SP-3. And I also noted the Word 2000 build
versions so you know how far in updates Word currently is.

Microsoft Word 2000 (9.0.2720)
Microsoft Word 2000 (9.0.3821 SP-1)
Microsoft Word 2000 (9.0.6926 SP-3)
Microsoft Word 2000 (9.0.8968 SP-3) after 13 more updates

Then these are the last updates after SP-3. I don't know if Microsoft
still has them on their servers anymore, but you can check.
