Why does Update want me to load the following Office 2007 fixes, and is
there a reason to do so?

Security Update for the 2007 Microsoft Office System (KB936960)
Security Update for Microsoft Office system 2007 (KB951808)
Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack Service Pack 1 (SP1)
Security Update for 2007 Microsoft Office System (KB954038)
Security Update for the 2007 Microsoft Office System (KB951944)
Security Update for the 2007 Microsoft Office System (KB954326)

Short answer: As you've already installed the Microsoft Office Compatibility
Pack (else Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack SP1 wouldn't be offered), the
updates you list apply to your machine and Office 2003 SP3.

Because these are Office 2007. Did you install the Office 2007 Compatibility
Pack?
