    Hi

    So, having diligently patched our PCs with hotfix 823980, it turns out that
    it breaks a piece of software that is critical to our work. Removing the
    hotfix fixes this software. It seems that the two are incompatible...

    We're speaking to our software vendor to see if anything can be done about
    it, but:

    1) Has anyone else had issues with this fix? I've not noticed any
    mentioned...
    2) What would you suggest we do in the interim [until our software can be
       fixed]? We are behind a firewall, but there are several users who bring
       laptops into the office and use them on the network.

    Thanks,

    Alex
