The Microsoft Outlook product team has posted a blog entry to inform
users of several issues related to the Outlook 2007 update (KB2412171)

these issues as:
  * Outlook fails to connect if Secure Password Authentication (SPA)
    is configured for an account and the mail server does not support
    SPA.
  * Noticeable performance issues when switching between folders if a
    Microsoft Exchange Server account is not configured in Outlook.
  * AutoArchive cannot be configured for IMAP, POP3, or Outlook Live
    Connector accounts if there is no Exchange Server account
    configured in the same Outlook provide.

The blog entry indicates that this update has been removed from
Microsoft Update. Users who have previously applied the update and are
experiencing any of the listed issues are encouraged to uninstall the
December 2010 update as described in the blog entry.

US-CERT will provide additional information as it becomes available.
