I'm running 2003 SP1 with PS4 and Office 2003 SP2. I haven't really have any issues with Office, even when it was SP1. My users aren't using IE through Citrix, so not much to speak of there. I know I've seen IE crash when I tested it (as a domain admin) through ICA/RDP when I went to yahoo.com. It doesn't crash if I do it logged into the console. I thought that was odd, but haven't looked into it yet since it's not necessary for my environment. My office install is straight via setup.exe, no custom MST. Any changes are done via GPO or registry edits. Clients are mostly 9.0 and a few 9.1, web or PNAgent. I have a variety of PS4 hotfixes, but not the hot fix rollup (yet). ________________________________ From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Pardee Michael Sent: Tuesday, December 20, 2005 12:25 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: Office 2003 applications hang So you are running SP1 and still seeing the crashes?

I have been told that Windows2003 SP1 is supposed to address this issue, so we are currently testing it. Is anyone else seeing this with SP1 already applied?

As I said, I don't know what this other person did.
