Hi
I have removed the patch KB940157 and it seems to ahve recrtified the errors
in event viewer.
My ftp app is still broke though, with access denied errrors. Maybe another
patch from the batch.
Thanks

KB940157 isn't a patch, it updates Windows Desktop Search to Windows Search
v4.0. Post here instead:
