    Thanks Mike

    I have XP Media Edition SP3 which isn't mentioned - God only knows what would happen if I run the fix therefore.

    Mike,

    I had a stupid problem yesterday, from a trojan "anti virus" demo. Though I had to do other things to do this, when I ran this patch, clamav said a lot of the infected files were installed. I think some jerk may have used this flaw to cause trouble for me. If so, your patch was like 95% of the cure! BTW Researching this is complicated enough, you made it a walk in the park.

    Steve
