Comment (by cypherpunks):

 > Because Microsoft cannot automatically update locally deployed Visual
 C++ libraries, we caution against local deployment of these libraries. If
 you decide to use local deployment of redistributable libraries, we
 recommend that you implement your own method of automatically updating the
 locally deployed libraries.
