Just installed the patch yesterday on two systems with XP3 (one Home, the other Professional - 32 bit French versions) and come up with a bug.

User accounts that have limited privilege status gives an explorer.exe hex error on login and I have to use the task manager to close the session (no desktop - of course). If I try to login again to ANY account, I get no keyboard input. I have to use the mouse to shutdown and restart to get the system back to \"normal\". I don't see any errors in event viewer.

Accounts with Administrator privilege work fine. The error doesn\'t show up and the DLL works normally. If I change the accounts with limited privilege to Adminsitrator privilege, they work fine. I would like to resolve this, as I don't want to keep Administrator rights for those who should not have them for the patch to work.

first of all, welcome man :D

and secondly, try dl it from the link given here, and check again.
if it still gives that warning, then i think you need a good anti virus man :D

try nod32, its good, and doesnt give false warnings like that :d
