The KB article states: Note This hotfix requires that you have Windows XP Service Pack 1. And the dates of the kernel files are from 2003. There have been several kernel updates since then including the ones in SP2/SP3 and in subsequent Security updates. If the systems are still on SP1, it appears that they are no longer receiving Security updates, so they should have SP3 applied soon: http://support.microsoft.com/lifecyc...icePackSupport " Security Update Policy Microsoft will provide security update support for a minimum of 10 years (through the Extended Support phase) for Business and Developer products. The security updates will apply only to the *supported service pack level* for these products. Microsoft will provide security update support through the Mainstream Support phase for Consumer, Hardware, Multimedia products. The security updates will apply only to the supported service pack level for these products. * Both the Mainstream Support and the Extended Support phases require that the product’s *supported service pack level* be installed to continue to receive and install security updates. * Security updates will be available from Windows Update during the Mainstream Support phase, and the Extended Support phase (if available). Note that technical limitations in Microsoft Office 2000 require that it remain an exception to this process. Updates will be provided only through the Microsoft Download Center for the duration of its Support Lifecycle.
