Hi,

If the issues in MS03-031 are applicable to you then apply MS03-031 with
826161 (this fixes a problem from MS03-031). This is the level we are aiming
at. Also SP4 should not be too long from now.

Search Page for SQL Server 2000 (SP3) hotfixes (checked: Show only bulletins
that contain patches that have not been replaced by a more recent patch.)
and the results I got were:
