Issue(s) Resolved in this Hotfix

Caution! Several items in this hotfix may require you to edit the registry. 
Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require 
you to reinstall your operating system. Citrix cannot guarantee that problems 
resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry 
Editor at your own risk. 

1. If extended characters were used in elements of a seamless window, such as 
window titles or the notification area (system tray), the characters may have 
displayed incorrectly if the server's system code page was different from the 
client's. This occurred because the extended characters were not translated 
accurately between server and client.

This hotfix corrects the issue.

2. After closing modal dialog boxes of certain published applications in 
seamless mode, focus occasionally went to other windows on the client desktop 
rather than to the application that launched the dialog, and you had to click 
on the seamless application title bar to get focus back to the application. 
Applications affected by this issue use a zero-sized window at coordinates 
(0,0) to hold focus between the time the modal dialog closes and the time the 
application window is reenabled. The seamless code recognizes this window as 
invisible and, therefore, does not send seamless protocol messages to it.

Although this behavior was a designed, it was considered inconvenient by users, 
and this hotfix corrects the issue.

3. A memory leak was caused by a custom Terminal Services API to enumerate 
processes.

This hotfix corrects the issue.

[From Hotfix XE104W2K008][#100466]

4. Minimizing the language bar in seamless applications may have resulted in 
keyboard failure on the foreground application window.

This hotfix corrects the issue.

[From Hotfix XE104W2K008][#100535]

5. If an application performed a specific action upon pressing the Escape key, 
switching from a seamless window with a menu open to a desktop window caused 
that action to be executed, even if the Escape was not pressed.

This hotfix corrects the issue.

[From Hotfix XE104W2K008][#104173]

6. An access violation sometimes caused servers to experience a Terminal 
Services related blue screen. This occurred if the state of an anonymous user 
session became invalid during the logon or logoff process. The session state 
was not verified before calling a Microsoft API.

This hotfix corrects the issue.
