Is it dangerous to uninstall it? There is a risk, but for many people, the risk is very low. The exploit, like most, if not all Office exploits these past few years, will not run automatically – the user needs to be convinced to open the document and possibly, change security settings.
' While all four versions of Outlook are affected by the bugs, Outlook 2007 and Outlook 2010 seem to have the most issues with this update. Attachments won’t open This issue was fixed in the July 27 2017 update. The security update is targeting “specially crafted office documents” and part of the “specially crafted” applies to file names. Multiple dots and certain characters (including?. !) in a file name will trigger the Open or Save dialog, or in the case of attachments on Contacts, Tasks, Appointments, or in RTF formatted messages, a silly dialog stating that Outlook isn’t installed. The program used to create this object is Outlook. The program is not installed on your computer.
To edit this object, you must install a program that can open the object. When you open an attachment, you may get the 'open or save' dialog when you didn't previously. After saving the attachment to your hard drive, it should open without issue.
If you prefer dragging the attachment to File Explorer, that should work too. There is one (previously) known issue: if a message whose subject ends with a file extension that is on the unsafe extension list, the message will be blocked as an unsafe file type. You need to save the message to the hard drive and rename it, then attach.
ICloud doesn’t work The solution for this problem is at A user complained: iCloud had been working perfectly for years syncing with Outlook until yesterday. When I started getting this message: The set of folders cannot be opened. An unexpected error has occurred. MAPI was unable to load the information service C: PROGRA2 COMMON1 Apple INTERN1 APLZOD.dll. Be sure the service is correctly installed and configured. The usual fixes of signing out of iCloud and signing back in or reinstalling iCloud won’t fix this problem.
Add one of the following registry keys to allow iCloud to load. Consumers and others not using group polices will use this key: HKEYCURRENTUSER Software Microsoft Office 12.0 Outlook Security DWORD: AllowUnregisteredMapiServices Value: 1 (disable the security checks) The group policy key is at HKEYCURRENTUSER Software Policies Microsoft Office 12.0 Outlook Security DWORD: AllowUnregisteredMapiServices Value: 1 (disable the new security checks) You will need to restart Outlook for the key to take affect. Ready-to-use registry files are available: Custom Forms won’t open Users are complaining about published custom forms too. VBScript and some controls are blocked. The solution for this problem is at. I have a custom form that's published to my personal forms library that I use for new contacts. When I create a contact, I get the following message and the VBScript behind the form doesn’t run.
If I uninstall the security update the problem goes away. 'To help prevent malicious code from running, one or more objects in this form were not loaded. For more information, contact your administrator.' As with the other problems, the short-term solution is to uninstall the security update. BCM Crashes Outlook I haven’t discovered any issues between the security update and BCM, however, an is popping up again, most likely due to.NET framework updates. When the chart controls are missing or corrupted, the BCM dashboards won’t display and Outlook may crash.
Reinstalling the chart controls will fix it.

MS16-004: Security Update for Microsoft Office to Address Remote Code Execution (3124585) Office for Mac Severity CVSS Published Added Modified 9 (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C) January 12, 2016 January 12, 2016 March 21, 2018 Description Multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities exist in Microsoft Office software when the Office software fails to properly handle objects in memory. An attacker who successfully exploited these vulnerabilities could run arbitrary code in the context of the current user.
If the current user is logged on with administrative user rights, an attacker could take control of the affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.
