For more detailed information, go the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/943075/

Microsoft is in the process of adding this fix to Microsoft Update so that it will get automatically pushed to users running Excel 2007 or Excel Services 2007.  Additionally, the fix will also be contained in the first service pack of Office 2007 when it is released (the release date for SP1 of Office 2007 has not been finalized).
