Super-Magician Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 (edited) I see! I will also try with the new 911565.KB904942 is an optional update for Internet Explorer 7. If you don't install IE 7, I don't think there is any reason to include it. However, I do notice that it says the problem does not occur until IE 7 is installed. Does this mean I should include the hotfix?Regarding the seeking issue (KB912226): On the page for KB911565, Microsoft does not say that the issue is fixed. It is still listed under "Known issues".

Narag Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Regarding the seeking issue (KB912226): On the page for KB911565, Microsoft does not say that the issue is fixed. It is still listed under "Known issues".You're right - I was too lazy to read thoroughly the whole thing - I thought they're releasing fix and not only bumping this fix to notify users about possible complications after installation of this fix.

Tomcat76 Posted April 13, 2006 Author Share Posted April 13, 2006 KB904942 is an update for Outlook Express 6 but it's only needed when/if you install IE7.Outlook Express 6 uses "a certain way" to access HTTP-based e-mail servers (such as Hotmail) which no longer works (or is no longer accepted) when you install Internet Explorer 7. KB904942 updates the way OE6 accesses HTTP-based e-mail servers in a way that's compatible with both IE6 and IE7. So the hotfix is not needed if you decide to not install IE7, but installing it anyway doesn't harm your system either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomcat76 Posted April 15, 2006 Author Share Posted April 15, 2006 If I remember correctly, your Windows Update problem isn't new. I don't know what "Microsoft Windows Publisher" is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narag Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 I'll check it out tomorrow. But it worked before, didn't it?No, it didn't work for me. Well, for me it's a minor issue as I don't plan to install IE7 in near/distant future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcat76 Posted April 15, 2006 Author Share Posted April 15, 2006 (edited) You can try 60415b for the KB904942-v2 problems. I'll start doing extensive tests in a while myself. Edited April 15, 2006 by Tomcat76 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_guy Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 I found out why 904942 doesn't get slipstreamed. The new version is only on Windows Update. You need to go to the Windows Update Catalog to download the new version.the_guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camarade_Tux Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 Then could you please host it somewhere for the poor people that can't use WU ?(nLite, blabla, removed, blabla, is able to restore BITS and AutoUpdate service but seems something else missing, blabla, wil dig into, blabla :flowers: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcat76 Posted April 15, 2006 Author Share Posted April 15, 2006 Thanks for the tip, the_guy. You are right. I installed the WU Catalog version by hand and then Windows Update stopped complaining.I removed the "trial fix" for KB904942-v2 introduced in HFSLIP_60415a.For the folks that are interested in having the WMP9/10 classic skin... It appears that the latest fix introduced about two days ago does the trick. Happy skinless experience... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcat76 Posted April 15, 2006 Author Share Posted April 15, 2006 New final is coming up. I just need to do one more test.The fix for the "DX3 problem" on Windows 2003 will not be included in the final since noone seems to give a F. I can't test this myself because everything's fine on my end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
