Two notes refuting the assertion that having IE 4.01 SP2 on your Exchange
Server 5.5 prior to installing SP4 lets MS01-057 install correctly;

Shawn.Hayes@COMPASS.NET says;

"That is not true. I loaded version one of this patch on a box running NT4
SP level up to Post SP6 Rollup, IE 5.5 SP2, and Exchange (OWA) SP4 (Exchange
not really running on this box it is strictly IIS and OWA) and it still
broke my OWA. MS support was no help bringing it back. I had to remove and
reload completely. Some great Saturday afternoon. Version 2 of the patch
is not supposed to cause problems.....fool me once shame on you, fool me
twice shame on me.......
I will wait and see."

Brent Cowell <BCowell@camosun.bc.ca> says;

"Actually I ran into the problem on a server running Exchange 5.5 SP4, IIS
4.0 and IE4.01 SP2. Originally the server had been set up using Exchange 5.5
SP3 and I upgraded to SP4. When I installed the patch my users couldn't read
their e-mail. I had to upgrade IE to a newer version."
