I believe (without testing) that this is just the service pack.
Installing it requires a pre-existing installation of Visual
Studio 2008, or else the installer will refuse to do anything.
Note that it also won't install on top of Visual Studio Express:
you need a licensed copy of Visual Studio to install the service
pack.

Visual Studio 2008 still *is* available to MSDN users. It's
just not available through regular sales channels anymore.
