Hello Everyone,

I/S is currently working on a statement regarding Y2K, SP4, and hotfixes.
We hope to have the statement ready to release towards the end of next week.

In the meantime, Microsoft has released SP5.  Once again, I recommend that
you wait to install SP5 because it has the same issues as SP4 and the
additional fixes between 4 and 5 do not address any of these issues.  For
more information on SP5 and what it includes, please check out:

<http://www.microsoft.com/ntserver/nts/news/msnw/Sp5Mktbulletin.asp>

From the download pages for the High Encryption version:
Note: The "Full-Install" download option for the High Encryption (128-bit)
version of SP5 will be available for download by May 19. Please check this
site again if you need the "Full-Install" option or choose the "Express
Install" option above to install SP5 to your machine. "Express-Install"
allows you to install all the same files that will be included in the
"Full-Install" option.

Thanks,
Jonathan
