I dunno, but I did spot this on another forum:

Security Update, March 4, 2002

This update resolves the "Java Applet Can Redirect Browser Traffic" security vulnerability in the Microsoft virtual machine (Microsoft VM) on Windows XP and Windows Millennium Edition (Windows Me), and is discussed in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS02-013. Download now to prevent a maliciously crafted Java program ("applet") from silently re-routing all browser traffic to the applet’s host without the user’s knowledge.

This update upgrades your version of the Microsoft VM to 3805.

For more information about this vulnerability, read Microsoft Security Bulletin MS02-013. (This site is in English.)
