We do not know if this will affect systems that do not use a-a-c.

Yes, it does affect non clustered Exchange servers in the same way. At
least this has been in my case. I don't know if this is a problem for
everyone that has applied this patch.
I noticed that store.exe was on a rampage this morning after I applied
this "patch" yesterday to the server. After a reboot, it took about 5
minutes or so to reproduce the same results with store.exe. So I
rebooted it again and removed the patch so my users would have an
exchange server to connect to.
Of course a server that is inaccessible is much more secure, but I think
we need a patch that doesn't take out the server as a means to remedy a
security hole.
