MS calls this trustworthy?

I ran updated MSBA 1.2.1 today (on a few different PCs to see if it was
just me) with no mention that I needed MS04-028.  

OK. Fine!  I'll check windowsupdate.microsoft.com

Now at least I get a critical update warning, great, I install
"Microsoft GDI+ Detection Tool (KB873374)".  

But wait!

They only give you the option of running "Microsoft GDI+ Detection Tool
(KB873374)" to see if you are vulnerable ONCE!  I can't find it in the
add-remove programs, program files, where did it go?

SO I ran it, it said I might be vulnerable, and then I expected it to
tell me what program I had that was vulnerable.   

Not this program!

Instead it bumps you out to a different web site, telling me to run a
bunch of other update programs to see if I am vulnerable????

SO I think it might be Office2003, but I have Office 2003 SP1 installed,
so I should be OK?  (Win2k Sp4, IE 5.5 SP2, all safe according to MS) No
updates needed besides the spam filter update for Outlook.  Ok I install
the spam filter update.

SO, how do I re-run it now to check?  I can't download it, I can't
uninstall it so Windows Update can detected it again?

Did I miss something here?
