Yes. As a general rule updates should always be applied. Sometimes it's best
to wait a bit at first to see if there are problems, but in this case the
update has been out for quite some time.

OE download link and info:

This latest version�version 5.0.6�includes support for MSN Web mail accounts
and resolves all security vulnerabilities in previous versions of Outlook
Express�5. This includes vulnerabilities that might have caused Outlook
Express to stop responding or caused a memory problem that compromised the
security of the computer as well as a security vulnerability that can enable
an attacker who had a valid security certificate to issue an invalid
subordinate certificate that would appear to be valid. For more information,
see Microsoft Security Bulletins MS02-050 andMS02-019 .
