A minor adjustment to my earlier message!!! While the Windows Server 2003
and Windows 2000 fixes are available now (through PSS and the Download
Center, respectively), we are still going through the process of making the
Windows XP Professional fix available through PSS. The current estimate is
for this to be available some time tomorrow and I'll be sure to post an
update here. Apologies for the delay...
