You might want to check the March 22nd issue of Scot Finnie Newsletter for a rundown of the patch.
http://www.scotsnewsletter.com/ And as I remember, there ought to be something on the Woody Leonhard site; although I don't remember exactly which newsletter or when. Try the archives. http://www.wopr.com/ Their basic take is that it probably won't hurt too much. Pay particular attention to Scott's discussion of how to avoid some of the draconian security center settings. He's got a lot of references to earlier discussions of the sp. Good reading. drew -----Original Message----- From: Peter MacGregor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 30, 2004 10:40 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [wdvltalk] Re: OT: IE Problems I've just got my copy of that disc too. Since I download patches anyway, I'm not sure if it will do any good so have it sitting here staring mournfully at me as if to say "Please use me" and then more dangerously "And then I'll tell Uncle Bill all about your computer". <grin> I sent for it in case there was something interesting on it. Might explore it when my modem isn't connected some time! Peter MacGregor At 15:53 30/03/2004, you wrote: >Peter, > >No, I don't have the problem, but you may have saved me from it!
