SP2 Bug fix??

[VManes]

From Microsof****ch, a Ziff Davis publication:


Microsoft has issued a fix for one of the most cantankerous Service Pack 2
problems caused by T.V. Media.

Numerous applications, including some of Microsoft's own, have encountered
compatibility problems with Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2). But one
application in particular wreaked an inordinate amount of havoc until
Microsoft created a removal tool, and now, a patch, for it.

Warning to Everybody! If you want to install the SP2 make sure you backup
your machine. Mine crashed twice after installation. And yes, Microsoft
will be more than happy to tell you what to do for about $40 bucks (and that
may not work; I got charged before for no fix). My advice? Take your
chances, don't install the fix if you want your computer to work.
