YES. I confirmed this on a computer that does not have MS Office, after installing an old version of the Word viewer. Windows Update found no missing patches, but Microsoft Update found some missing patches for Office that applied to the Word viewer.

My experience has been that Windows Update is aware of the "viewer" applications and tells you when there are fixes needed. Finding the right Word viewer to download is a bit confusing as the current version has no version number.

The good thing about a viewer is that it can be seen and copied on to a free program that comes with a computer. It is editable and usable if you copy and paste.
