    Ok, clarification. I said;

    "I also haven't tested whether running the updated version of MS03-043 on a machine which already has it is going to actually run, I'd expect the patch installer to say its already applied (based on the presence of the registry key only) and abort. Likely you'll have to remove the 828035 registry key first, then run the patch again, to get the dllcache updated. Simply copying the updated file into the dllcache may work also, since WFP believes that version to be the correct one, but again I haven't tried this either."

    I've numerous reports now from people who did apply the updated version over an installation including the pre-October 29th MS03-043 who confirm that the new version of the files do get correctly installed, including updating of the dllcache directory version of wkssvc.dll.

    Cheers,

    chance of making progress.
