The problems with this patch seem to affect mixed OS environments, particularly if there are older OSs involved. If the "server" is a WIN98 machine, 'Save As' is disabled in many Apps. MS have at last acknowledged some of the problems with this hotfix. Go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/895900/ for another patch to fix the problem - if their comments apply. Sounds like a new hotfix is on the way from Win Update
