Patch has not been updated or re-released. The NT4 patch should have a
file size of around 242,616. Try expanding the hotfix with the /x
switch. If it doesn't expand, you have a corrupted download - could be
something in a caching proxy server between you and the download server.

The specific file in the patch is idq.dll - dated 5-25-2001 - with a file
version of 5.00.1781.3

The NT4 post SP6a Security Rollup Package also contains the fix - the
idq.dll has been version incremented - but it is the same file - no
additional changes (version number incremented to aid in the installation
process to ensure that it gets on the box.) The version number of the file
in the SRP is 5.00.1782.4
