Note that the reissued Rollup will not include the Citrix fix "because
of the limited number of systems involved". Looks like Citrix ranks up
there with the Exchange 5.5 problem.

Update


Like we didn't know that it messed up Citrix...



        Microsoft to Reissue Final Windows 2000 Update
           Microsoft will release an updated version of Update Rollup 1
for 
        Windows 2000 with Service Pack 4 (SP4), a consolidated software
patch 
        that was supposed to be the last major update to Win2K. The new
version 
        of Update Rollup 1 is required because the initial version
included 
        "isolated" problems that have affected some Microsoft customers.
           "After the release of Update Rollup 1 for Windows 2000 SP4,
we 
        identified several issues that may occur when you install this
update 
        rollup," a Microsoft support bulletin states. "These issues are 
        isolated, and affect few customers ... If you are affected by
these 
        issues, we suggest that you do not install Update Rollup 1 for
Windows 
        2000 SP4 until the corresponding hotfix is available. We plan to

        reissue Update Rollup 1 for Windows 2000 SP4 soon." Microsoft
also 
        noted that the new version of Update Roll up 1 will include
several new 
        hotfixes. 
           According to Microsoft, the original version of Update Rollup
1 
        adversely affected certain applications from Citrix Systems,
Internet 
        Security Systems (ISS), and Sophos. Even Microsoft Office is
affected. 
        After installing Update Rollup 1, customers reported that Office

        applications could no longer save data to floppy disks. You can
learn 
        more about the update rollup and the problems Microsoft
customers have 
        experienced by reading the Microsoft bulletin.
