Although not the same OS, I've had a boatload of problems with this patch on fully updated (SP4 and all availible updates from Microsoft) Windows 2000 machines. The problem has only appeared on 2000 machines, our XP SP2 machines (also fully updated) seem to be unaffected. So far we have only seen the problem on our internal Peoplesoft pages, but the patch is still quite new. So far I have noticed it crashing 'ntdll.dll' and another one, which I cannot recall now. It seems to affect different people in different places, but will affect the same person trying to do the same task every time. Thankfully it only 'infected' about 500 computers before we realized there was a problem and uninstalled the patch. It looks like Microsoft screwed up again!
